@Butterfly_bros @savebutterflies @Team4Nature300 @ukbutterflies @britbutterflies @LepidopteraNews @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @WildlifeMag @WildlifeTrusts @MeadowInGarden Great. Bought 8yr old grandson a pop-up pic of #butterflies and am now sending him short snippets about them. Have done Painted Lady migration, Peacock defences and Large Blue life cycle. Any ideas for other butterflies or their #caterpillars?
