First marbled white butterflies spotted in Sally's field - these are attractive butterflies that have become more common in recent years.

Sally's records show that they have appeared a little earlier than usual and their favourite nectar flower - knapweed - is not yet open.

Climate change with its unpredictable weather will lead to unusual patterns of weather and this may mean flowers open early or late and this may cause problems for species that depend on them.

Fortunately the marbled white will seek out nectar from clover and thistles so has other sources of food, but other more specialist species may not be so adaptable.

The fire service exhibit at @rhschelsea - showing clearly the risks from climate change.

On the left a typical urban hard landscaped front garden that has flooded following heavy rain. Contrast that to the garden on the right with its permeable surfaces that have allowed the rain to soak into the ground

See the second photo for a list of things you can do to reduce the risk of flooding
