Big Butterfly Count

A pleasant thing to do in the garden for 15 minutes.

Save butterfly’s

This is very easy to use and will give the people working in conservation a great idea of how the butterfly population is doing, (as long as enough people participate)...

The only thing I would change is to have an option to put in the place name first so that I don't have to move the map 100's of miles. Otherwise very easy and glad to take part!

Butterfly’s mean the world to me and are my life I love theme and hate to think of a world without theme less couler in the air and love taking part in this knowing it will save theme

Hi, thanks for making this. It would be soo much better if you added a scale diagram for IDing. These butterflies are rarely larger than the smartphone screen displaying them so it seems crazy not to give an indication of size when that’s so crucial for a good ID. Great otherwise, thanks!

When you try to count, it says the count starts July 2022! If it’s no longer active why is it on the App Store?

This is just what is needed to quickly identify, locate and record 17 very common butterflies. Unfortunately no options to add additional species, so flawed in its design as this gives an artificially high record for those species listed with no returns for other notable species, such as the Heaths, Fritillaries, Graylings and Wall. Very disappointing. Also includes 3 random moths and a Scotch Argus! Please add an ‘Other’ category with options to add species names in the next year’s version of this App.

I’ve taken part every year and it’s very easy

15 min coffee break proved perfect time to do this. On a casual glance didn't think I'd have much to do but once start looking surprised by number of varieties flitting around 2years later done it again at my sisters garden whilst having coffee. Highlight being a comma, identified through the app.
