Stop by our table from 1 pm to 3 pm to learn about the endemic butterfly species of the Spring Mountains and go on a butterfly hunt. Participants will learn about the butterflies found in the Spring Mountains, get a butterfly guide, and be sent off to look for butterflies. Butterflies found will be entered into the iNaturalis app contributing to the community science of the Spring Mountains.
