Counts are a great opportunity to improve
your identification skills. If you don't feel your level of expertise
is high enough, you can always check with the Count organizer. Often
you can go along with a more experienced person. I hope you'll join
at least one in your neighbourhood.
On some of the counts refreshments or
camping facilities may be provided. Don't hesitate to contact the organizers
if you have any questions. They would appreciate you letting them know
as soon as possible if you will be participating, so they can plan more
efficiently.
Dates are subject to change! Please check
with the count organizer in advance.
Everyone is welcome, whatever your skill
level. Note that many of these counts are done for the North American
Butterfly Association and that there may be a nominal charge for participating.
Please be prepared for the count activity with sunscreen, water, hat,
food and other items suggested by the count organizer. This list has
been compiled by Carolyn King and the Toronto Entomologists' Association.
Dates with an asterisk are TEA guesses based on last year's dates.
