 From Gordon Hart:  September Butterfly Walk Cancelled

   At the end of a hot, dry summer, not many butterflies are being found around Victoria, so the September Butterfly Walk (originally scheduled for September 5) is cancelled.  There are still some possible interesting sightings and these should continue late into the fall, so keep looking and enjoy the fall weather. We will plan for more walks and counts in the spring of 2022, so keep an eye on the VNHS Calendar and the Invertebrate Alert.
