Interesting… that feels awfully short, is their reproductive cycle really that short… let me double check.

Google: “Butterfly season UK” Answer from multiple sites: “March to October”

Edit: 2 spelling mistakes.

Huh? Butterflies pop up in the spring and will stick around until fall. Where did you see that they are only (or primarily) around in October to November? That seems really late, I don’t think butterflies can survive frost.

My bad I read wrong it ENDS October to November. But my point of it being summer remains. Butterfly don’t enjoy the heat of the summer
