Because nature is better when we notice it

One pale-green butterfly settling on a blaze of orange petals proves that even the smallest garden can pulse with life.

Grow nectar-rich flowers from early spring to late autumn, treasure berry bushes for winter, and let ivy climb where it will. Skip the pesticides, mow a little less, leave a log pile and a shallow water dish, and watch bees, hoverflies, birds and butterflies turn your patch into a living canvas.

Look closely at the photo above. Which butterfly do you think it is, and can you name the bright orange plant it’s feeding on? Pop your guesses in the comments and let’s see how many species we can spot together.
