During the spring, the flowers bloom, the waterfall bubbles, and the park comes to life in a sea of green. However, one section is dedicated to housing colorful lepidoptera and keeping them safe.

Inside this safely enclosed area, butterflies fly by and land on anything in their way. That could be you, with a butterfly on your hand! There's new butterflies here every two weeks during warm months, and they are most active when it's above 75 degrees outside.
