In this course, we will identify butterfly species that are found on Cape Cod and use a PowerPoint presentation to look at the identifying characteristics, anatomy and life stages of butterflies. We will explore the relationship between butterflies and plants that will guide us in finding habitat that supports the various species. We will also suggest publicly accessible places to find butterflies and discuss habitat rehabilitation and how to invite butterflies into our neighborhoods and yards.
