Black Hairstreak sightings are decreasing - please note that spotting one is not a given. However, there will likely be many other beautiful woodland species.

An easy way to support butterfly conservation is to walk a transect. Transects are predetermined routes where the goal is to record both butterflies and weather conditions. If you are interested, contact our Conservation Officer via our website - link in bio!
