Butterflies and Parks

'Weeks', like buses seem to come along in threes - guess it might have something to do with the kids breaking up from school for the summer.

There are three 'weeks' that you can take part in here in the UK.

First up it is Big Butterfly Count week.  With numbers seemingly down this week, I would encourage as many of you to take part.  It will involve just 15 minutes of your time watching and counting, and then a few minutes to submit the results.
 
If you do, please let us know what you saw - we would love to hear from you.
The second 'week' is 'National Parks' week, celebrating the open and natural spaces of our land.  Again lots to do and see.  Check out the website to see what is on offer.  Maybe something to do if you have kids on holidays.

Finally there is 'Parks Week' - this covers your local parks.   This 'week' also has a photo competition that involves wildlife - so again maybe one that might be of interest to you.

That ends this weeks public service announcements  :-)
