Butterflies

For many amateur naturalists butterflies are a new enthusiasm, and it only recently that good field guides have existed to complement the recent growth in the number of man-enhanced butterfly habitats available for observers. At Lost Canyon there are two gardens established with particular emphasis on attracting butterflies: one in front of our home, the other to be planted in the center of Scottie’s Garden. In Spring and Fall the gardens in front of the house can be covered with masses of fluttering color – we have recorded as many as 21 species there at one time. The butterfly habitat within Scottie’s Garden will take a few years to mature. In the meantime, please help us expand our species list – there are a number of species in addition to those on the list here that should be found on our property, in the right season and in the right habitat.
