Spotted this beautiful butterfly here this week. What a year for 🦋
Check out that glowing bright blue colour on this Common Blue butterfly, as photographed by Jez Taylor.
As a reminder, we have another of our special Butterfly Walks this Saturday at 1pm. Led by Howard from Lincs Butterfly Conservation, this is a great time of year to go on such an event. Both from the volume of butterflies (and day-flying moths) to be seen, but also it is the Big Butterfly Count. The annual citizen science survey of the nation's butterflies. So come along to take part, seee https://events.rspb.org.uk/events/113433 to book.
If crafting is more your thing, don't forget Angela Daymond's stitching course on 12 August where you can design and create your own butterfly bag. https://events.rspb.org.uk/events/124510 for more details.
