Wisconsin Butterfly Counts The NABA Butterfly Counts is an ongoing program of the North American Butterfly Association to census the butterflies of North America (United States, Canada and partially Mexico) and to publish the results. Volunteer participants select a count area with a 15-mile diameter and conduct a one-day census of all butterflies sighted within that circle. This is a good way to gain more experience with a range of butterflies. Whether experienced or novice, you are always welcome to participate. To join in, contact the coordinators (Karl and Dorothy Legler, karlndot@charter.net, (608) 643-4926). For the Oconto count please contact Doug Buege at djbuege@gmail.com (NABA charges a $3 fee to participate in a count, to help defray the cost of publication.) (For a list of additional Butterfly Counts in Wisconsin and elsewhere, visit NABA’s Web site at www.naba.org/counts/us_mx_map.html Contacts are Listed.) NABA Butterfly Count Reports for the U.S. are available from NABA for a fee, and are also available at Steenbock Memorial Library on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. Note the counts were called Fourth of July Butterfly Counts from 1985-1999; the name switched to NABA Butterfly Count Report from 2000 to present. Join us on a SWBA butterfly count!
