The partial third brood of Holly Blue in Bedfordshire in 2022 now shows clearly in the data. An unusual occurrence.

@kbalmer that's fascinating, I've seen a lot of confused spring plants coming out (primroses, violets, dogwood flowers) but it hadn't occured to me that this mild autumn would be having the same effect. What effect do you think this will have on numbers, what proportion do you think are emerging? Will they have time to pupate before it gets cold do you think?
