At the start of this year's (2012) Big Butterfly Count, I set myself the challenge of finding, photographing and Blipping (blipfoto.com) a different species of butterfly (or one of the two eligible moths) for each of the 23 days of the count.
These are my results:

Yes,welcome to the site. And what a great place you live in, the Isle of Purbeck! In the best county in GB for butterflies! Keep us informed of all that happens down there. Cheers.

Thanks. With this year's poor summer, I am not sure that I would have succeeded in any other county. Dorset is a naturalists paradise and, living here, is a privilege we never lose sight of
