Nature Museum to Hold Butterfly Day in Cornwall, New York

What do you really know about butterflies? We know they start out as caterpillars and then along the way they morph into these beautiful creatures with wings but there is so much more to the life of these winged marvels.

The Hudson Highland Nature Museum (HHNM) has an event scheduled on September 10th, 2022, that would answer a lot of our questions. It would also give all of us butterfly enthusiasts a reason to find out more and spend some time within a butterfly experience.
