There has been a huge drop in the number of butterflies. There is a downloadable poster to identify any that you see here.Sir David Attenborough was talking about the decrease in numbers on the Today programme.http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_9536000/9536918.sthttp://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-14133537I have a buddleia in the garden which used to buzz with bees and be frequently visited by butterflies. I haven't seen any butterflies for quite a while and very few bees.Here is a chance to step out of the virtual world and learn something about the real creatures that we share this world with. Remember the nature table at school years ago and the discussions and reearch that followed?
