For Starters: Butterflies

August is the best time of year to learn about our butterflies in New Jersey. The weather is hot, the sun is bright, and the meadows are booming with blooming wildflowers. In this introductory class, participants will walk through two different meadows to learn about and observe some of our most common native butterflies. One of our most well-known native butterflies, the monarch, will be making its journey south for the winter, and if we're lucky, we'll get the chance to spot them too!
