SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Mecklenburg County\, NC Dusted Skipper Blitz
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED\nThis walk has been cancelled because 3 of the 4 areas we planned to search have been burned and there is no grass around. This walk may be rescheduled for 2023 or 2024. \n========== \nJoin us on May 7\, 2022\, in search of the elusive Dusted Skipper. This skipper seems to be rapidly declining throughout the Carolinas and is currently only known in Mecklenburg County\, North Carolina\, from one powerline right-of-way. \nWe will meet up at Latta Nature Preserve at 10:00 in the Gar Creek Canoe Access parking lot\, GPS coordinates 35.34968\, -80.92404\, to explore a once-reliable location for this skipper. Depending on the size of our group\, we may split up into smaller groups to take advantage of extra eyes and search as many suitable locations for Dusted Skippers as we can. This outing aims to attempt to locate additional populations of the beautiful single brooded species. Refer to the website below for a map and additional information about Latta Nature Preserve. \nIf you plan on attending\, please RSVP on the Carolina Butterfly Society website or email Robert Gilson at robert.gilson@faunaventures.com. \nThis trip will be co-led by Robert Gilson and Chris Talkington. Make sure to bring plenty of water\, sunscreen\, insect repellent\, a hat\, binoculars\, a camera\, and your favorite field guide.

SUMMARY:Harriet McCarthy's Home Butterfly Garden (Forsyth County\, NC)
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, May 14\, 2022\, the Triad Chapter of CBS (Carolina Butterfly Society) will hold a butterfly walk at Harriet McCarthy’s home butterfly garden in Forsyth County\, which has been certified as a Monarch Waystation. The whole property is beautifully landscaped.

Most of the mature plantings are in her back garden. In addition\, she has a flowerbed at the base of the lawn in front of her home with one end set aside for shade-loving plants under the cover of mature trees. \nIf you would like to attend\, please contact Harriet McCarthy at the email address below to RSVP and obtain her address (which\, for privacy and security concerns\, is not published here).
