All are welcome to join us for the spring 2016 Walk in the Woods Nature Lecture series, which will feature a showcase of local butterflies and moths, focusing on the monarch butterfly and creating butterfly gardens.
In February, Farrar Stockton, Assistant Curator at the Cockrell Butterfly Center, will be presenting Lifecyles of Local Butterflies and Moths.
