Although I couldn't attend the BC national AGM yesterday, I was delighted to hear that a certain Mr Eeles was the very worthy recipient of the 'Marsh Award for the Promotion of Lepidoptera Conservation'. I feel that this is just recognition not only of Pete's immense individual efforts, but also those of the others who have contributed to the successes and undoubted value of the UK Butterflies website. Congratulations Pete!
BWs, Neil

Very well deserved! Congratulations Pete

Many congratulations Pete and about time too!

Vince

As you say, Neil, a very worthy recipient! Congratulations. Pete.

Very well deserved, Pete - congratulations . One of the most informative websites anywhere.

ATB

Peter

Congratulations on the award and many thanks for providing the website!

Many congratulations Pete, well deserved!

Given that he won't countenance being given the UKB annual award for his contribution to this website, I'm delighted to see him being recognised by another group.

Many congratulations, Pete. I've a feeling it won't stop there either.

Pete, Many congratulations and well deserved. An inspiration you are to many if not all of us lesser mortals.

Iain

Congratulations from Minnie and me, too! Well done Pete!

Thanks for posting this thread, Neil, and to everyone for their kind comments. The award came as a complete surprise and I'll write a summary of those I need to thank later this coming week (once I get some photos to make the summary more interesting!). The citation on the award is "Awarded to UK Butterflies, Peter Eeles" and feel that pretty much sums up how I feel about the award in that it is UKB first, me second This is an amazing community with amazing members, and I am extremely pleased to see that our contribution has been recognised!

Cheers,

- Pete

Great news, very well deserved Pete. I'm still waiting for my "UKB's most dashing member" award. Sadly I think it's been lost in the post! Either that or Neil Hulme's run off with it.

Just catching up on posts, congratulations from me Pete Goldie

I've only just caught up with this - huge congratulations, Pete. If it hadn't been for UKB I would probably not have reinvigorated my childhood interest in butterflies - so many many thanks for this outstanding website.
