SUMMARY:Monarch Tagging at Seip Earthworks
DESCRIPTION:Join us Sunday\, September 8th\, to help capture and tag monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus)! As part of the Monarch Watch program\, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park is helping a nationwide effort to study the amazing migration monarchs undertake every fall. \nNets and free handouts will be provided about butterflies and other wildlife. Make sure to bring water\, sunscreen\, and running shoes- these butterflies are planning to migrate thousands of miles\, so will take you on a great chase at times. Expect to walk and/or run a lot! All participants will need to complete a volunteer form. \nPark staff and volunteers will demonstrate safe and proper techniques for capturing and handling these delicate winged marvels. Once a monarch is carefully captured\, they will receive a tag- which is a specially made sticker placed on their wings. Volunteers and scientists along the migration route throughout the country and Mexico can then easily observe the tag and thereby assist in tracking monarchs to their winter homes and back! \nAt Seip Earthworks\, we will be stationed under a tent near the native grasses. Rangers will be waiting to greet you near the entrance to help guide you to the sampling location.

Ruby will lead a walking tour of this hidden Hopewell landscape. \nImportant Reminders \nAll tours are free and open to the public\nTours will last approximately 3 hours and will cover 2-3 miles of unpaved\, uneven terrain\nCome prepared with snacks and water\nThere is little to no shade on these tours\nBring a hat\, bug spray\, sunscreen\nWear sensible hiking shoes.
