Over the last two weeks, we have run three training events, with the hopes to inspire more people to take action for butterflies! After a morning of learning how to identify our Northamptonshire butterflies, along lots of handy tips from Susannah, we then headed out to some local woods to practice surveying for real.

By carrying out transects you can make a contribution to nationwide butterfly monitoring, providing vital data to inform our conservation efforts.
If you would like to get involved, whether that submits casual sightings, take on a square, carry out timed counts or take on a regular transect.
