Thankyou for replying! I do record all sightings (all wildlife, not just butterflies!) in our greenspace on iNaturalist - so I hope those filter through to your schemes somehow

Well well! You certainly started something

Well ... so many "out of context" things I could reply to that!!!! For a bit of lovely reading, my sis loaned me a new book by her friend Chloe Turner: Blue Hawk. Beautifully written, life in 17th century Glos. Lots of local refs, a (so far) gentle story about tough lives in the cloth industry
