It is really easy to take part in the Big Butterfly Count. All you need to do is count butterflies for 15 minutes during bright (preferably sunny) weather. The count runs from now until the 9th August so you have plenty of time. You can do the survey anywhere from parks and gardens, to fields and forests. You can also submit separate records for different dates at the same place, and for different places that you visit – which means you can do the survey more than once! Sightings can be recorded online at www.bigbutterflycount.org or you can download the FREE app onto your phone. Butterfly Conservation also provide a FREE butterfly ID guide specifically for Scotland on their website that you can print off.
