Hello Butterfly Watchers,<\/p>\n

The July Butterfly Count period starts Saturday July 18 until Sunday July 26. This is an informal census of butterfly numbers and species in Greater Victoria. The area is defined by the Christmas Bird Count circle, extending from Victoria to Brentwood Bay and Island View Road in Central Saanich, and west to Happy Valley and Triangle Mountain, and Langford Lake and Goldstream areas.<\/p>\n

You can submit a count any time over the count period, just use a separate form for each count and location. In the case of repeat or duplicate counts, I will use the higher numbers. To submit counts, please use the form from the VNHS website at: https:\/\/www.vicnhs.bc.ca\/?p=33<\/a><\/p>\n

If you have difficulty with the form, just send me an email with the information.<\/p>\n

Thank-you for submitting your sightings and good luck with your count.<\/p>\n
