TAKE YOUR TIME… ON A BUTTERFLY WALK

JUNE IS PEAK VIEWING TIME FOR MANY OF THE UK’S MOST BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLIES, SO WHY NOT TAKE A STROLL ALONG THEIR KNOWN FLIGHT PATHS? AT BOOKHAM COMMON IN SURREY, YOU MIGHT EVEN SPOT THE RARE PURPLE EMPEROR (LEFT), OR SILVER-WASHED FRITILLARY (THE ‘HAPPINESS BUTTERFLY’, ABOVE) IN DEVON’S ASHCLYST FOREST. WEAR RED OR ORANGE AND THEY MAY LAND ON YOU. nationaltrust.org.uk
