Those who have read Matthew Oates' new book, His Imperial Majesty, right to the end will have noticed this entry on p390:
With this in mind, the Yorkshire branch of Butterfly Conservation has today announced its intention to offer a prize for the first (or should I say, next!) verified sighting of a Purple Emperor in Yorkshire. Whilst Fermyn Woods has undeniable appeal to those based in the Midlands, we hope this will encourage you to cast your eyes further northwards...
The White Rose turns purple?
Re: The White Rose turns purple?
Interesting challenge, Callum. Maybe you should get yourself down to the Rotherham/Doncaster area and claim the prize!
