Busy Butterflies
Evergreen Nature Center
Saturday, Aug. 14, 10 am?noon
Butterflies are active here in the Front Range from April through August.
Some show up before the snows have all disappeared, while others fly when
the grasses are brown and dead looking. The busy season is June and July. As winter loses its grips on the mountains, the butterflies show up higher and higher in elevation until they fly at the highest peaks. Be ready to listen and enjoy colorful, fluttering insects. Jan Chu will lead participants in a walk outside after the presentation. Participants should wear good walking shoes; no open-toed sandals, please. Bring a hat, sunscreen and binoculars, if available. This program is sponsored by the Nature Center and Evergreen Audubon. Registration is required; call 303-330-0489. Class size: 22. All ages.
