A discussion forum for butterfly enthusiasts of Austin, Texas, affiliated with the Austin Butterfly Forum (austinbutterflies.org), a club that offers events to Austin-area butterfliers.
This is an informal discussion group. We want to hear about your butterfly happenings. Share your excitement and frustrations, share your questions and your wisdom. We want to promote a sense of community among butterfliers of the area.
We especially welcome beginners. We are delighted to help people learn about butterflies. Ask your questions, or even try your hand at helping others.
And everyone -- newbies and veterans alike -- feel free to make mistakes. This is how we all learn. I know I feel better when I see that I'm not the only who gets confused about butterflies.
Many of us here love other bugs too, so anything bug-related is welcome. We seem to have a growing contingent of dragonfly and damselfly enthusiasts, as well as a few spider enthusiasts, so if you post about such critters, you can be certain that someone here cares.
