Aylesbeare Common is one of the few places where the Pearl Bordered and Small Pearl Bordered butterfly have been seen in recent years. Join butterfly expert Paul Butter for a guided walk around this rare piece of Devon heathland in search of these elusive insects and also look for other species too as part of Butterfly Conservation’s annual Big Butterfly Count Survey. This part of the Pebblebed Heaths National Nature Reserve is managed by RSPB, where nearly 30 butterfly species choose to make their homes here in this wild unspoilt habitat.
This event is part of East Devon AONB’s Saving Special Species project.
