May 12th was National Limerick Day, celebrating Edward Lear’s wonderful invention of nonsense poetry. SBBT is inviting everyone to submit a limerick about swallowtails. Take a look at the details here. We will publish them on our website on World Swallowtail Day, 14th June. Why not have a go!?
Swallowtails and birdwings are beautiful and graceful butterflies – who wouldn’t love to see them dancing in the sunlight or sipping nectar from wildflowers? But many species are under threat from agriculture, forestry and climate change. We have ideas, enthusiasm and a vision for the future. Will you help us to achieve our goals?
Financial contributions are welcome and will be treasured. We also need your ideas, new information, suggestions and encouragement!
We do four things to help swallowtails and birdwings: we raise financial resources; convene networks and partnerships; catalyse action, and provide scientific and technical support.
