Scott Richardson has continued his articles about butterflies found on his farm in South Africa.

He takes a look at the Charaxes species found and describes their behaviour and habitats.

Specific interesting behaviours include hill-topping, feeding on dung, particularly carnivore, such as Leopard, and feeding on sap runs.

Key species found include: Bushveld, Pearl-spotted, Dusky, Foxy and Green-veined Charaxes.

The magazine has been drafted now and sent to my designer - hopefully ready as usual by the end of March.

Me too. Comes at an ideal point in the year when we're all gearing up for another year's action. :D

Just read it from cover to cover.

Excellent edition, Jason - the best yet I reckon!

I particularly enjoyed the Bavaria article by Markus, David's account of Romania, and Mario's North Macedonia report.

More areas to add to my "to visit" list...

I read my copy yesterday also, all in one sitting. Like Pete, I really enjoyed the Germany article. I knew very little previously about what was written. Very interesting indeed.

Cheers as ever for taking the time to collate and publish such an excellent publication.

Am I right in assuming the magazine is now ready for purchase?

If so how much is this edition Jason?

Many thanks

Got mine yesterday thanks, Jason.

The article on Germany has made me think a little. :)

The magazine has been printed now - price from me direct is £10.00, including postage.

Pemberley Books have their copies now, if you prefer to order from them.

Pemberley Books inform me they still have copies of Issue Seven - 2024, if you would like a copy. (I have sold all mine).
