About this Event
A butterfly tagging workshop offers participants a hands‑on opportunity to contribute to conservation and migration research.
During the session, attendees learn how to safely capture, handle, and tag butterflies with lightweight, uniquely coded stickers that allow scientists to track their movements. Instructors demonstrate proper field techniques, share insights into butterfly biology, and explain how tagging data supports studies on migration pathways, habitat needs, and population trends.
Participants then practice applying tags and if possible releasing butterflies back into the environment. The workshop also highlights the importance of native plants and pollinator‑friendly landscapes, encouraging participants to support butterflies in their own communities.
Designed for all ages, the experience blends science, stewardship, and outdoor exploration, empowering individuals to take part in meaningful citizen‑science efforts that deepen our understanding of these remarkable insects and the ecosystems they depend on.
