Hi, joined your forum after seeing a swallowtail yesterday (see the "sightings" section).
Im a head gardener for a large, municiple rock garden in Brighton and as my manager is butterfly mad, we're gradually creating areas for all types of wildlife...frogs, toads and newts, aquatic insects, pollenating insects, butterflies and moths and birds.
I don't think there's ever been a year when i've seen so many different types of butterfly in the garden.....everything from the orange tip and brimstone early on to thousands of large whites, meadow browns, commas and painted ladies.
Hope to learn a lot more from you experts out there.
