Virtual Butterfly-watching in Predannack

​To celebrate Butterfly Education and Awareness Day, I will take you on a "Virtual Butterfly-watching in Cornwall". Not just for a day but for the WHOLE month of June.

My 3rd "Virtual Butterfly-watching in Cornwall" is in Predannack at the Lizard Peninsula to see the rare Marsh Fritillary Euphydryas aurinia. 

Predannack is own by the National Trust. The Lizard Peninsula is known for its geology and for its rare plants and lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

The name "Lizard" is most probably a corruption of the Cornish name "Lys Ardh", meaning "high court"; it is purely coincidental that much of the peninsula is composed of serpentinite-bearing rock. The Lizard peninsula's original name may have been the Celtic name "Predannack" ("British one"); during the Iron Age (Pytheas c. 325 BC) and Roman period, Britain was known as Pretannike (in Greek) and as Albion (and Britons the "Pretani").


Long walk, steep hill, picturesque and scenic view.​
