Small Copper in #Brightlingsea #Essex garden, 1st seen here, great habitat for them, Sheep’s Sorrel (preferred larval food plant) in mini meadow historic grass plus daisy family preferred nectar source in garden, fingers crossed for more to follow

A rarity in the garden these days, this Small Copper was struggling against the wind to sun itself this morning. Hopefully the Common and Sheep Sorrel will keep it in the garden. Sawston. BC Cambs and Essex

This wall brown #butterfly was basking on the patio this afternoon - the species is rare in Cambs, so it’s exciting to see them in the garden each year BC Cambs and Essex

Sadly no surprise these results are so dire. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Getting quite a lot of 3rd brood Wall records Got to hope this sudden change in weather isnt going to knock out our remaining colonies

Quick lunchbreak leg stretch round Sutton and delighted to see a Wall Brown! Seen a few on the Washes this year but lovely to get a sighting in the village 🙂 (submitted on iRecord) Edward Pollard BC Cambs and Essex Butterfly Conservation 🦋

In recent years, Magog Down has emerged as one of the best sites for butterflies around Cambridge, if not the whole of our region Hopefully the Chalk Hill Blues will give it another go if/when the weather patterns improve

As an indifferent butterfly season draws to a close, my stand-out highlight was witnessing the amazing sight of 200+ Heath Fritillary fluttering and gliding at Hockley Woods, Essex. A magical experience! BC Cambs and Essex Butterfly Conservation 🦋
