July 11 - Camp Edwards - register now

[Barbara Volkle]

Thanks to Jake McCumber for the following notice.

Upcoming field trip:  Camp Edwards (Bourne) Hairstreaks on July 11th. This is always a fun time with the chance for Acadian Hairstreak among other nice species. I currently have low registration numbers. Registration is required by July 6th (instructions below) due to the restricted access and background check requirement for the military base.

Detailed description: Join the MA Army National Guard's Natural Resources Manager Jake McCumber in a search for numerous species of Hairstreaks and other butterflies in a diverse pine barrens habitat. As many as six different hairstreaks - including Acadian, Coral, and the appropriately named Edwards' - may be seen along with a wide variety of other butterflies and moths. Camp Edwards is an active military training installation with restricted access so registration and background check are required. To register, please send an email to: emily.d.k...@army.mil with your name and telephone number. A confirmation email will be sent with further information including directions, base access, meeting place and parking. For additional information please contact trip leader Jake McCumber at Jacob.M...@mass.gov or 339-202-9343.
