| The red admiral is a medium-sized butterfly and is identified by its striking dark brown, red, and black wing pattern. |
Darke County Parks needs help! Butterfly habitat is declining, and scientists need to monitor their populations very closely. Every Friday from May through September at 2pm, join a naturalist to hike a pre-set path and record all the butterflies observed. These numbers will then be sent on to the Ohio Lepidopterists for scientific study. There’s no need to be an expert. A staff member will be present for the hike, and field guides will be provided. Hikes will occur as long as temperatures are above 60 without rain. For more information, please contact the Nature Center at (937) 548-0165 or email
info@darkecountyparks.org.
