Migrating Monarchs Program at Lake Iowa Park!

Event Summary

Join Naturalist Mary Bulger to learn about the amazing monarch butterfly!   

We will start with a indoor presentation at Lake Iowa Nature Center from 10:30-11:30a about monarchs including: their life cycle, what they eat, what you can do to help increase monarch population, and how we tag and track their migration to central Mexico.
