Sussex Branch

Richard F, Roy, Jason, Max, Graham, JC, Neil, Richard B, Debbie and Dave.

Throughout the winter the branch arranges and supports conservation work parties on its reserves and on other important reserves across Sussex, helping improve the habitat to ensure the continued success of our butterflies in 2025 and beyond.

Neil Hulme has again agreed to lead the winter work parties at Rowland Wood and Park Corner Heath this season. There will be 12 work parties this year, all on Sundays from November to February.

Dates and other information are available here

The web site will be unavailable on Monday 30 December as we will be undertaking essential maintenance. PS/MK

IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS AND THAT MEANS IT WILL SOON BE CHRISTMAS QUIZ TIME! AS MOST OF YOU WILL ALREADY KNOW, THERE ARE 50 QUESTIONS, WITH TWO PARTS TO EACH QUESTION. THE FIRST PART REQUIRES SKILL IN IDENTIFYING BUTTERFLIES AND THE SECOND PART IS A TEST OF KNOWLEDGE. THE FIRST TWENTY QUESTIONS SHOULD PROVE TO BE FAIRLY EASY AND THEN THEY GRADUALLY BECOME A LITTLE MORE DIFFICULT. IT'S BOTH FUN AND EDUCATIONAL. I DO HOPE THAT MANY OF YOU WILL GIVE IT A TRY.
