Please join us for a presentation on the topic of “The Whats and Whys of Butterflies” presented by Dr. Nancy Greig. Nancy has been the director of the Cockrell Butterfly Center at the Houston Museum of Natural Science since 1994; and since 2005, she has served as Curator of Entomology for the museum.
Butterflies are almost universally liked, even by people who “hate” other insects. What’s so special about butterflies? Nancy will discuss details of their life cycle, some fascinating aspects of both larval and adult stages, and unusual adaptations such as the pollen-feeding tropical longwing butterflies and the unique migration of monarchs.
We look forward to seeing you at 1:00 at the Bayland Community Center, 6400 Bissonnet.
