SUMMARY: Trade in your hiking poles for butterfly nets for the day and get a close-up look at some of the beauty migrating through NH. Enjoy an aerobic workout netting monarch butterflies, tagging them with stickers from the University of Kansas’ Monarch Watch program https://monarchwatch.org, and releasing them. Not to worry, I’ll have extra nets. This is a great opportunity to learn more about this amazing insect species and contribute to a better understanding of their migratory behavior. Please bring water and snack/lunch to get you through the day. I advise sunscreen and tick repellent too |
