The High Brown Fritillary
I recently saw my first ‘High brown Fritillary Butterfly’ while in My Artists Residency with the National Trust in the beautiful Heddon Valley and I couldn’t wait to get back in the studio to paint one.
High Brown Fritillary Butterfly
We are extremely lucky here in North Devon to have one of the highest concentrations of the High Brown Fritillary Butterfly in the country and to have conservationists such as the National trust striving to create habitats to support this beautiful Butterfly and save it from extinction.
The High Brown Fritillary is one of Britains most threatened species of Butterfly and listed as a vulnerable species under the wildlife and countryside act of 1981.
