On Tuesday nights in March and April, bring your flashlight and look for butterflies in the Lena Meijer Tropical Conservatory—some species gather in groups each evening—roosting amongst fine tree branches and leaf tips.
Feeding stations are a great place to see butterflies up close during the day, as they visit nectar-filled dishes and plates of overripened fruit.
Included with general admission. Free for members.
