  • First Butterfly Sightings — the first recorded sighting of each butterfly species in the parish each year.
  • Big Butterfly Count — locations and results from the annual UK-wide count, contributed by Chadlington recorders.
  • Hedgerows & Habitats — surveyed hedgerow segments and other habitat features of note.

Spotted something worth adding?

The map is curated by our volunteers to keep records accurate. If you've seen a notable tree, butterfly, or other wildlife you'd like us to add, please get in touch — we'll verify it and pop it on the map.

Include a photo if you can, and a location (your phone's photo GPS tags, a What3Words reference, or a grid reference all work).
