Overview

Peter Smith

Are there Camberwell Beauties in Camberwell? And why is the Red Admiral so named?

Did you know that some butterflies can be carnivorous? Some can sing and some conduct chemical warfare? We will explore the secret lives of some of the 59 species of UK butterfly, plus our regular visitors.

Discover why almost half our butterflies are threatened and what we can do about it. Peter is a local beekeeper, amateur entomologist and writer who works to raise awareness of some of the issues faced by our local pollinators
