Darke County Parks
Butterfly
Monitoring Volunteers Needed
Darke County Parks needs help! Butterfly habitat is declining, and
scientists need to monitor their populations very closely. Every Friday
at 2pm from now through September, join a naturalist to hike a pre-set
path and record all the butterflies observed. These numbers will then
be sent on to the Ohio Lepidopterists for scientific study. There’s no
need to be an expert. A staff member will be present for the hike, and
field guides will be provided. Hikes will occur as long as temperatures
are above 60 without rain. For more information, please contact
the Nature Center at (937) 548-0165 or email info@darkecountyparks.org.
