    We are BEST, the local chapter of the North American Butterfly Association (NABA), an international, non-profit organization. Like NABA chapters all across the continent, we work to increase public enjoyment and conservation of butterflies, by focusing on the joys of non-consumptive, recreational butterflying including; listing,  gardening, rearing, conservation and photography.
    • Our meetings are open to all ages and backgrounds.
    • We conduct monthly field trips both near and far during the flight season.
    • We sponsor numerous butterfly counts scattered throughout Southeast Texas.
    • We promote butterfly conservation at area schools, within other local organizations, and at local festivals.
    • We have a lot of FUN!!! Come join us!! No previous knowledge or experience with butterflies is necessary!
