Big Butterfly Count 2023 is here!

Big Butterfly Count 2023 is here!

The sun is shining, the butterflies and moths are fluttering and today sees the launch of the 2023 Big Butterfly Count - the world’s biggest survey of butterflies!

Last year over 64,760 of you took part and submitted a massive 96,257 counts to help us understand how these beautiful insects are coping in the face of a nature and climate crisis. 

Sadly, as our State of Butterflies 2022 reported earlier this year, 80% of butterfly species have decreased since the 1980's - this drop is telling us that our wider natural world is in trouble. 

Taking part in the Big Butterfly Count is an easy but meaningful way to help.
