Rebecca's Butterfly Farm (BCyA)

Work experience with @savebutterflies.bsky.social & with @twycrosszoo.bsky.social For BC I searched for butterfly eggs & worked on their social media, creates their #MothMonday posts, & more! With TZ, I was in the butterfly house teaching the public about butterflies, showing around schools & more

An amazingly striking Zebra Longwing Butterfly ❤️🦋❤️

So many beautiful butterflies @stratbutterflyfarm.bsky.social, and there's not just butterflies that you can experience, there's soo much more! I love the Horsehead Grasshoppers and the crocodile. This place gets better each time I visit 🦋

Had an amazing time @zslofficial.bsky.social London Zoo, especially in Butterfly Paradise. Here's some pics 📷🦋 #London #Butterflies #Caterpillars

Had a great time @HertsZoo! They have a UK Centre for Species Survival Trail which has bug hotels, lots of flowers for pollinators, bird & bat boxes. Great to catch up with @camwhitnall, Tyler & Aaron the #OZT bros I took the photos of the animals 📷🐆🦁🦦 #zoo #conservation

So this little Comma Butterfly did not want to sit still for a photo 🤣 or a close up & wanted to get out into the wild to spread its wings. It's the 1st to emerge of 2025 with a few more to go. All were laid on our Blackcurrent bush 🥚🐛🥐🦋 #Butterflies #conservation #learn

The female Vapourer moth has laid eggs. Here we are releasing the 2 males & I'll show you the eggs soon 🥚🐛🥐🦋 #Lepidopterist #learning #learn

A female Vapourer moth hatched out in the net & attracted 2 male's from outside my Butterfly Farm. 🦋🦋🦋

So here's one of the Comma butterfly caterpillar's that are munching on our blackcurrent bush. This one will soon be making a chrysalis. 🥚🐛🥐🦋 #butterflies #PositiveVibesOnly #Lepidopterist

Butterflies are bouncing back in our garden! So far this year, we have had Red Admiral, Comma, Brimstone, Small Tortoiseshell, Peacock, Small & Large White, Orange Tip, Holly Blue & Speckled Wood - 10 species of butterfly 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋 #Conservation

Another released into the wild that I had looked after in my Butterfly Farm over Autumn and Winter 🏡🦋

The difference between Small White & Large White Butterflies 🥚🐛🥐🦋 #ButterflyConservation #Butterfly #Facts #fact #learn

Now you see the big caterpillar, now you don't! Found this Yellow Underwing moth caterpillar crossing the path so brought it in my Butterfly Farm & popped it in the jar with soil. It buried itself straight away (see video clip - sped up) to make its chrysalis & cocoon. 🦋

1. A Large White Butterfly has emerged that I protected over winter. 2. A fact about the Large & Small White. 3. Watch & listen to what happens when I release it 💜🦋💜 #butterflies #Conservation #Lepidopterist #butterflyconservation

Caught the female Orange Tip butterfly being born on camera 📽🦋 #conservation #butterflies

Here she is, the first and only Orange Tip Butterfly that I've looked after for '10 months' from an egg laid in my garden last year. Last year was a bad year for #butterflies - hopefully I'll have more to look after this year. Isn't she adorable! 🥚🐛🥐🦋 #Lepidopterist #conservation

There should be Orange Tip Butterfly lift off today and here's why 🥚🐛🥐🦋

The Climate Kids Podcast - coming soon! Volume up 🔊 🌎🦋🐸🐝🦊🦌🦍🐒 #podcast #Podcasters @SarahButterfli @NaturetasticWH @BenjaminFallow #JoeRajapaksha @LeosAnimalPlan1 @Aneeshwar_K

I also caught an Orange Tip #Butterfly emerging on camera that I looked after from an egg. You will be seeing these very soon too, hopefully! 🥚🐛🥐🦋

I bet lots of people have spotted a Comma #Butterfly recently. Here's one I recorded emerging from its chrysalis that I looked after from an egg 🥚🐛🥐🦋

A female Brimstone Butterfly keeps fluttering around our garden & around its foodplant that we planted called Buckthorn. We have also seen a male Brimstone so fingers 🤞 for Brimstone eggs this year! 🥚🐛🥐🦋

I like learning about butterflies as they are so interesting & beautiful. Looking at their wing scales under my microscope is fascinating, as they can be different shapes, & really colourful too 🦋🔬 #Lepidopterist #learn

I had a fab time on @bbcbreaking-bot.bsky.social representing @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social as their Hoverfly champion alongside @vickihird.bsky.social. I said why they are important, how you can help them, & more. 🐝🦋🌎 #wildaboutgardens #beahoverflyhero

A few years ago with Mike Slater of @savebutterflies.bsky.social teaching me about Green Hairstreak Butterflies. If you look carefully you can see two males fighting over territory. Volume up to hear what Mike is saying 🔊🦋🦋

These 3 species of butterfly had been spotting in Warwickshire, in the month of February. I'm looking forward to Spring time 🌻🦋🌞🌻

A super #cute Essex Skipper #Butterfly in my #garden Summer a few years ago. You can tell the difference between Essex & Small Skippers by their antennae. The Essex Skipper has black tips on them but the Small Skipper has orange. 🦋 #Butterflies #gardens
