Small Copper Butterfly 🦋🧡 This small butterfly can be spotted at #ParcSlip throughout the summer.🫶🏼 Males are territorial & can be seen basking on bare ground or rock waiting for females, & chasing off other insects that encroach on their space.💪🏼 #30DaysWild 📷K Edwards

Really strong and inspiring words from Huw Irranca-Davies @huw4ogmore from @WelshLabour showing support for a #NaturePositiveWales. He says future generations will not forgive us if we fail to act now.
