Butterfly Hike
The land is painted with vibrant colors of red, orange, purple, and yellow.  Flowers of these colors attract one of the most favorite insects - the butterfly!  Several "butterflyers" joined PEBC staff for a hike to capture butterflies and took an up close and personal look at them.  They also searched for the butterfly eggs and caterpillars. This program was a capture-and-release program.  Participants also took home their very own “bug box.”
