Friday Night Talk on the watershed and aquatic organisms in the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument.
Could a butterfly fly from Grants Pass to Hyatt Lake and find (enough) nectar-rich flowering plants all along the way? Could that same butterfly locate enough of the native plants her babies (aka caterpillars) need to eat? The caterpillars of most butterflies (and moths) are 'host specific', meaning they can eat only a specific one or two or few species of native plants - just like the monarch and the milkweed! Southern Oregon is home to almost 125 species of butterflies! Learn about some of the beautiful butterflies, and the native plants they need, that make their homes in the Monument and the Valley - and what each of us can do to help them fly further.
