[BNS_members] Monarch Open House with Larry & Alison Bogan

[Caroline Beddoe]

Hi all, 

Mark your calendars for SUNDAY, AUGUST 7TH FROM 10 AM TO NOON to come
enjoy a MONARCH OPEN HOUSE with Alison and Larry Bogan! 

They will have examples of the various stages of the Monarch's
development and people will be free to walk in their large field and
discover caterpillars and adults in the Common milkweed that grows
throughout the field. Alison and Larry will show and explain what they
do from June to October to support the Monarchs. They will demonstrate
tagging if they have a fresh adult eclose that day. 

This will be a lovely morning of Monarch appreciation and learning! You
may have seen the recent news that the Monarch butterfly has been added
to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) "Red
List" of threatened species as an endangered species, threatened by
habitat loss and climate change. Join us to celebrate this special
species. 

LOCATION: 6539 Brooklyn Street, Brooklyn Corner 

TIME: 10 am - 12 noon 

DATE: Sunday August 7th 

There will be folks helping direct parking. Carpools can also be
arranged. 

Thanks for Larry and Alison for hosting and sharing your knowledge and
work!
