Vermont’s Butterfly Census Unfolds | Montpelier News

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Vermont’s launching its second butterfly atlas — a massive, community-driven effort to map every species and track their health across the state. Scientists and volunteers are surveying block by block, gathering fresh data five years after the last census, aiming to be the first state to complete such a project. Even on chilly days, people show up with nets and field guides, helping build a real-time snapshot of butterfly populations — from monarchs to tiger swallowtails. You don’t need to be at an event: adopt a block online, snap photos with your phone, and let experts verify your finds. It’s science in your backyard — and a powerful step toward protecting Vermont’s natural heritage.
