Over the past few years Britain’s butterflies have had to put up with real extremes of weather ­ everything from the hottest spring to the wettest June on record. Based on research carried out with the BCN Wildlife Trust, I investigate how well butterflies cope with microclimatic change on isolated reserves and how temperature can influence the behaviour and breeding success of some of our rarest species.
