Stories About Butterflies – Or Are Butterflies Only Colourful?

🦋 Stories About Butterflies – Or Are Butterflies Only Colourful?

Butterflies are back — and with them, spring!

We invite you to an engaging lecture exploring why butterflies are important for nature, why many species are currently threatened, and how each of us can contribute to their conservation.

During the lecture, you will learn more about butterfly anatomy, their life cycle, and their role in ecosystems. We will also discuss the threats affecting their populations, as well as how citizens can take part in citizen science and contribute valuable observations to research and nature protection.

Discover how your walks in nature can become a meaningful contribution to biodiversity conservation. Nature needs our eyes — and butterflies are the perfect opportunity to open them.
