Hedges for Hairstreaks - butterfly ecology of the hedgerow by James Lunt of CPRE Herts

This talk explores the ecology, history and geography of hedgerows, why they matter, and how good management helps us protect them, optimising their benefit for nature. When properly maintained, they connect wildlife, support farming, build resilience to climate change, store carbon, reduce flooding, and provide vital habitat for butterflies, including species such as the White-letter Hairstreak. Hertfordshire's countryside is shaped by its hedgerows, which reflect centuries of change in the landscape, so join us to learn more about how to value this special feature of the countryside. James Lunt is Hedgerow Heroes Officer at CPRE Hertfordshire, a project run in collaboration with Butterfly Conservation Herts & Middx Branch.
