Speckled Woods seem to be fine down here in Windy Old Cornwall.

It's the Pieris Brassicae that worry me!

How sudden is this decline in P. brassicae? When I was a child it was 
rare for me to find any other kind of butterfly. Now it's an event to see 
one. Based on my own totally unscientific memories it's been in relative 
decline for decades.
