Who doesn’t love the brilliance of butterflies? The Dawson Valley is lucky to have several endemic species as well as more familiar Queensland favourites.

Over the weekend of the 15–16 October, the Wildlife Preservation Society of Queensland’s Upper Dawson Branch is celebrating the Society’s 60th year with a weekend of fun, fluttery joy.

As well as mingling with like-minded nature lovers and enjoying morning tea and some free celebratory butterfly cake, you’ll learn:

  • about Queensland’s butterflies and their lifecycle and ecological importance
  • how to identify particular butterfly species
  • how you can help sight and survey for butterflies and record your findings in useful ways.
