We are changing things up this month and headed to the Butterfly Garden at Sugar Land Memorial Park. Please also note the earlier start time of 8:00am – to beat the heat.  We will be led by our AgriLife agent John Few, an entomologist, who will help us find and identify insects in the gardens.

We will have some equipment to enable us to look more closely at these creatures and we will be recording our findings in iNaturalist. Please have the iNaturalist app downloaded on your phone and ready for recording what you find.
