The date for this year’s Point Reyes Butterfly Count has been set for Saturday, July 19.  We will meet at 10am at the picnic area of the Bear Valley Visitor's Center.  At that time we will split up into groups that will cover various count areas.  After the count we will meet back at Bear Valley.  

As you may already know butterfly counts are community science projects similar to the Christmas Bird Count with 15 mile diameter count circles.  This count circle includes most of the Point Reyes National Seashore.   The count results from all over the US are compiled and submitted to the North American Butterfly Association.   

If you are interested in participating this year please respond to
