When we consider migrating butterflies, we here in North America always think of the monarch, but Dr. Royce Bitzer will give a presentation highlighting those other migrant butterflies:  the Red Admiral, Vanessa atalanta, and the Painted Lady, Vanessa cardui. 

Dr. Bitzer has been leading a citizen science project, The Vanessa Migration Project, which collects data on the location of Vanessa species in North America.  He will share some insights on his findings from data collected over the past 10+ years.
