Saturday Butterfly BioBlitz at B. B. Brown’s Gardens, Lake County, Florida

I will be leading a series BioBlitz events focusing on plants, butterflies, and other critters at B.B. Brown’s Gardens located at 11490 Monte Vista Road, Clermont, FL 34711. 
We need your help to find and record as many species as possible.  This is great fun for kids and adults.  BioBlitz starts at 10:00 am and ends at 2:00 pm.  
Please join us!   The next BioBlitz is scheduled for Saturday, July 25, 2015 at B.B. Brown's Gardens, Lake County, Florida. For more information, check out their website at The Florida Scrub Jay Trail or contact by email or call (352) 429-5566.
