Everything you wanted to know about Butterflies, but didn’t know who to ask.

On Tuesday this week, our staff entomologist, Bill Reynolds, will present an on-line presentation exploring the amazing world of Butterflies and Moths. Bill, who in his previously life, worked as an entomologist for the NC Museum of Natural Science, has spent a lifetime traveling the world to study butterflies. Bill not only has an encyclopedic knowledge of all insects, but is also a keen plantsman. If you have any interest in these amazing pollinators, this is an in depth talk, you will not want to miss. Here is the link to register. The class will be through Microsoft Teams and a registration link will be sent. The webinar will also be recorded and a video link of the class will be available for attendees.
