Helping our Most Famous Butterfly: the Mission Blue on Twin Peaks

When:

Thursday, 16 Sep 2010, 19:30 - 21:30 Pacific Time (US & Canada)

Where:

Randall Museum

Who:

    This is a public event.

What:

In 2009 the Natural Areas Program of SF Rec & Park collaborated with US Fish and Wildlife to fulfill part of the 1976 recovery plan for the endangered Mission Blue butterfly. Leading SF lepidopterist Liam O’Brien—and co-winner of the 2008 GGNP Endangered Species Big Year, was invited to be part of the team to relocate and monitor 22 females from San Bruno Mountain. Since butterfly relocation is a recent science this evening promises glorious photography and stimulating conversation.
