The Big Butterfly Count for the UK (http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/gallery/2015/jul/17/the-big-butterfly-count-2015-in-pictures) is springing into action with a prediction that the Small tortoiseshell (Aglais urticae) will be making a big recovery (although I did think their 'unexplained' decline had been linked to an infection). I have certainly seen this species this year but 2015 has not been a good one here in terms of species diversity or numbers
