@neilshermanmoth @BC_Suffolk @norfolkmoths Interesting to see the difference in moth and butterfly records (BC have chosen iRecord as their preferred system).
There was a substantial problem for me as a verifier this summer so I left it alone for upgrades to fix. I now have several thousand records to verify.

@brame99 Thanks, Will. Great work you're doing at Landguard.

This #NationalInclusionWeek we spoke to Helping Hands for Butterflies Project Officer Anthony McCluskey about his work to make Butterfly Conservation more accessible for volunteers and include new audiences in urban areas in Scotland 💚🦋

Probably the last Walls I'll see this year at @SWTCarltonMarsh They seem to be enjoying the autumn sunshine! ❤️😁 @BC_Suffolk

@ThrushDarkling Your ? looks worn but I will go for Brown Argus due to the lack of blue scales on the upperwings. Both species exist on that site per Will Brame's tweets.

If Autumn were a butterfly 🍂🦋

The scalloped edges and cryptic colouring of the Comma's wings conceal hibernating adults amongst dead leaves, while the larvae bear close resemblance to bird droppings!

I shall be adding another tweet or two in the next couple of days with a view of closing down at the end of the month to coincide with the end of the season (apart from occasional sightings).
I want to say a big thank you for your photos, news and support. It is much appreciated.

🦋 Important news about this account.🦋
As I settled into this role I made a list of changes to make and one of them is to close this account down shortly because there is too much overlap with the @BC_Suffolk account. Sightings through the website are still very welcome.

@GrahamDenny9 @BumblebeeTrust @StevenFalk1 @FWAGeast @Gameandwildlife @JanetHughes @DefraNature @Rothamsted_RIS Thanks, Graham. Good to get that perspective. 👍

Bristly ox tongue is a prolific weed that has now come to my knowledge as one of the best #bee friendly plants and late #butterfly going ! @BumblebeeTrust @StevenFalk1 @FWAGeast @Gameandwildlife @SuffolkRecorder @JanetHughes @DefraNature @Rothamsted_RIS

@brame99 @neilshermanmoth @MigrantMothUK Congrats on the D. plusia. My guess on the Tortoiseshells (and Peacocks) is that the unusual summer has prompted them into early roosting. I stress that I don't have fieldwork data to back this up. Just a guess.

Here in the UK we live in one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. Nature is in crisis and urgent action must be taken to protect our environment, including butterflies, moths and their habitats. ⚠️🧵 (1/5)

@MikeCSmiffy @Lesliecater1 @RSPBMinsmere @MarcHeathym007 Hi Les, I was there yesterday too. Several Migrant and a few Southern hawkers near VC plus lots of Common Darter. Speckled Wood butterflies too but a quiet day for insects in the cloudier weather. Hobby, about 12:30 ish.
