Meet the heath fritillary butterfly! A wonderfully rare butterfly, it mostly displays a dusky, orange-and-brown chequered pattern. This lovely video was taken by Bison Ranger Hannah in the Blean. 🦋 The heath fritillary was on the brink of extinction in the 1970s, but conservation action turned its fortunes around. However, it’s still restricted to a few key habitats: primarily, coppiced woodland or sheltered heathland. 🌳 At the Blean, we work to create the perfect habitat for the heath fritill

Marsh Fritillarys are one of the UK's most threatened butterflies, but they are doing well at our Brackett's Coppice nature reserve. This one was spotted by James Cartwright on a recent visit. Aren't they stunning? ~ Cat | Dorset Wildlife Trust

Some of Britain’s rarest fritillary butterflies can be found in Dartmoor National Park Some of these species have sadly been in rapid decline for many years. The Marsh Fritillary has declined in abundance by 64% since 2005 and distribution by 79% since 1976, making Dartmoor one of the last strongholds for butterflies that were once a common sight in the UK. Supporting Butterfly Conservation and other partners with the successful All the Moor Butterflies project, we have been working with landown

This Heritage Treasures Day, we're celebrating the incredible High Brown Fritillary 🎉 These large, elegant butterflies are found on bracken-dominated slopes where their caterpillar food plant, Common Dog-violet, grows. Sadly, the High Brown has undergone dramatic declines across the UK, and in Wales, only a single colony remains in the Vale of Glamorgan. Through the Natur Am Byth partnership, our work with dedicated volunteers and landowners is helping this beautiful butterfly to thrive in Wale
