The staff of the Audubon Society of Rhode Island would like to extend their gratitude to everyone who was involved in last year's Rhode Island Butterfly Count!

We are fortunate to have excellent butterfly experts (some staff, some not) who donate their time to lead walks for the public.  In addition, we have a great number of experts who survey their preferred site(s) each year on their own and send us their results, including some wonderful photographs!  And of course we have a supportive public in Rhode Island who cherish butterflies and join the public walks and volunteer to help butterflies in many other ways.  Our thanks to all of you!
