JOIN US FOR THE BIG BUTTERFLY COUNT

Painted Lady

Why not join us in the Cemetery on Saturday 3 August, between 12:00 and 14:00 to participate in the Big Butterfly Count?

This will be our second year of participation in the Big Butterfly Count. We will provide the necessary identification sheets and you will be able to use the computers in the Learning Centre to submit you sightings online (or we can do that for you).

It only takes 15 minutes to take part in this important survey. The number and varieties of butterflies around us are an indication of the health of our country.

Refreshments and assistance will be available at the Learning Centre between 12:00 and 14:00

Please note this event is dependent upon good weather.

We look forward to seeing you on 3 August!
