I read that we had a butterfly shortage, but is Coastal Suffolk
particularly affected?

We feel as if we're seeing more butterflies this year compared with the
last few years. I saw a really beautiful, perfec, Red Admiral this
afternoon and there also seem to be a few Tortoiseshells around and they
have been very scarce the past few years. We also seem to have quite a
lot of browns of various species in our meadows.

We are in Suffolk Coastal DC, near Woodbridge.


Just up the road from me, then.

Nothing much in Felixstowe at the moment.
