# The Big Butterfly Count

  ![Image of The Big Butterfly Count](https://files.schudio.com/ststephenskm/images/Year%201/image(98).jpg)  17 July 2015   [Lyndsey Faulkner](https://ststephenskearsley.co.uk/blog/author/Lyndsey)   [Year 1 Blog](https://ststephenskearsley.co.uk/blog/category/year-1-blog)

Today we took part in the Big Butterfly Count which is a national event happening today. We had to spend fifteen minutes in our Eco garden and record our results on a butterfly identification sheet before submitting them online. Year one have been rather kind and have decided that they saw small whites, painted ladies, common blue, tortoiseshell, green veined white etc when in fact Mrs Robinson and I spotted none! Perhaps next year we can investigate the types of plants and flowers required to attract them to our school environment.
