Do you enjoy butterfly watching? Would you like to learn about butterflies and contribute to a citizen science study on these flying jewels?
Join for the Butterfly Watch, as part of the NParks Community in Nature Biodiversity Watch series, to help to learn more about butterflies.
What is the Butterfly Watch all about?
The Butterfly Watch is a citizen science initiative, organised by NParks in collaboration with ButterflyCircle, to get Singaporeans involved in collecting valuable information about the butterflies in our parks and gardens.
With the data collected from many survey transects from the various parks around Singapore, they can start piecing together information about where butterflies are found and in what numbers! This information will contribute towards better park management and conservation measures.
The Butterfly Watch will take place between 19 and 27 May 2018.
They welcome anyone aged 12 and above to sign up and volunteer!
Sign up here! Registration closes on 21 April 2018.
