Be a citizen scientist and join park rangers in identifying and tagging butterflies around New Melones Lake. Each participant will receive a checklist of common butterflies and materials to conduct the survey. The data collected will be used by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to track butterfly migratory patterns and record species populations across the state. Bring a hat, sunscreen, water, and lunch. Participants are also encouraged to bring butterfly field guides, nets, binoculars and cameras.
