This event is now history, but we have many more wonderful programs in store for you!
Join Ranger Kristen Garrison for a roughly 1-mile hike on the rolling hills of the Collins River Prairie. This area is very biodiverse and frequented by several species of butterflies (both big and small). Bring binoculars or your cameras so you can really get a close look!
Unlike for birding, you can wear white or light clothing (birds don't like white, but butterflies don't mind); bring a hat, water, and bring a hiking stick for tickling the flowers (this can sometimes reveal hidden butterflies).
Hope to see you there!
