Tower Hill’s gardens and meadows provide bountiful food and shelter for a variety of butterflies in both their adult and larval forms. Join Dawn Vesey of the Massachusetts Butterfly Club on August 18 from 10 – noon to learn more about these beautiful insects and how you can attract them to your own gardens. Perhaps you’ll see a Red-spotted Admiral (below) or a Silver-spotted Skipper, among the many butterflies large and small that make their home at Tower Hill. Please bring close focus binoculars if you have them. Limited to 15; pre-registration required at https://towerhillbg.thankyou4caring.org/pages/event-registration-form—butterfly-walk. $5 for Tower Hill members, $20 for nonmembers.
Amateur naturalist and photographer, a member of the Massachusetts Butterfly Club (and past Vice President of Eastern Mass), Dawn can often be found searching for and photographing butterflies in the woods and meadows of Tower Hill.
