Counting butterflies: 1, 2... 18!!!

Last weekend we participated in the National #ButterflyCount 2025. Five years ago, we counted one brown moth in 15 minutes, but now we saw at least 18 butterflies of six species fluttering in our church garden within fifteen minutes.

So much beauty and color makes you happy! It's wonderful to read the newspaper in our garden in the morning, surrounded by butterflies.

If you'd like to enjoy our uniquely designed and landscaped church garden, book a studio in our church tower in Jirnsum, Friesland: www.mauritiuskerk.nl. There's still room for July and August!
