1 Butterfly House! Docent Training! Spring 2012!
2 ENC Mission Statement! The mission of The Environmental Nature Center is to provide quality education through hands on experience with Nature. The ENC is designed to demonstrate and protect California native plant communities and to provide an educational resource and tranquil escape for members of our community. We provide opportunities for increasing our community s knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the natural world of California.
3 ENC History!!!!!!! In 1972 the gully between Newport Harbor High School and the private property on Kings Drive was a dumping area for the school district bus garage. Biology teachers at the high school yearned for a natural area to take their students to learn from "the real world". Previous to 1972 students still had many open spaces such as the Back Bay to explore, but these wild places were rapidly disappearing with the development of Orange County. Several of the biology teachers envisioned improving the gully and unused land next to the high school, and establishing an educational facility for all ages to enjoy and learn. Newport Harbor High School students established trails, planted native trees and plants, built log fences, etc. NHHS alumni frequently visit the center with their own kids to check on the redwood tree they planted 30 years ago! 1972!
4 ENC Present!! 1972!
5 Butterfly House!!Opened in April 17, 2005!The Butterfly House was made possible by a gift from the Rotary Club of Okazaki South in Japan and the Rotary Club of Newport Balboa as a joint centennial community service project. Additional funding was received from Pacific Life Foundation and Home Depot.!In the fall of 2004, Master Gardener volunteers helped ENC grounds coordinator Reginald Durant plant 45 different host and nectar plants for the native Orange County butterflies that live within the Butterfly House.
6 ! to butterflies in the world!! 700 butterflies in the US & Canada!! 60 butterflies native to Orange County (was once over 100)!
7 What does native mean?! Natives were here prior to European contact. California's native plants & animals evolved here over a very long period, and form a complex network of relationships. They are adapted to our climate and geography.
8 What does! non-native mean?! When non-native plants spread and become established in wild areas they may out-compete or smother native plants. They can do this because the natural pests, diseases or weather conditions which kept the plants in check in their homeland are absent here. These weeds deprive our wild animals of food and shelter, since native animals cannot make much use of them.
9 ! The ENC s butterfly house is unique because it contains butterflies native to Orange County.! It also contains host & nectar plants native to Orange County.! Visitors can actually plant these species in their own yards to provide habitat for butterflies!
10 Butterfly Basics:! Nectar Plants! With few exceptions, adult butterflies eat only various liquids to maintain their water balance and energy stores. Most butterfly adults sip flower nectar, but others imbibe fluids from sap flowing on trees, rotting fruits, bird droppings, or animal dung.! Many adult butterflies are found drinking fluid from wet sand or mud, especially along stream courses or the edges of dirt roads or trails.!!
11 Butterfly Basics:! Host Plants! Butterflies eat host plants as caterpillars. Caterpillars are very host specific! The host plant must be chemically compatible with the butterfly species.
12 How long do they live?!! Butterflies can live anywhere from 3 days to 12 months!!! The smaller the species, the shorter the adult life span.! Butterflies are always here in some stage!
13 Butterfly Basics:! Metamorphosis! caterpillar = larvae! chrysalis = pupae
14 Butterfly Basics: Anatomy!
15 As the butterfly emerges from its chrysalis, the proboscis is split in two. It connects.
16 Butterfly Basics: Butterfly vs. Moth! CHARACTERISTIC BUTTERFLIES MOTHS Antennae Club-like with a swollen tip Feathery Color Usually bright colors Usually less bright than butterflies Resting Stance Wings erect and held together while resting Wings open Period of Activity Usually active during the day Usually active at night (and attracted to light) Pupa Pupate as an unprotected chrysalis hanging from a branch or other support Protected by a cocoon or pupate underground or on the ground
17 Can butterflies be damaged by handling? Can you damage a chrysalis by handling it? Any butterfly can be fatally damaged by being handled improperly. For example, the vein on the front wing if broken will cause the butterfly to be flightless evermore. Their internal organs can be injured. Handling butterflies is not allowed in the ENC.
18 Are there endangered butterflies and moths? There are more than 19 threatened and endangered butterflies in the U.S. In California: 13 - Bay Checkerspot, Behren's silverspot, Callippe silverspot, El Segundo blue, Lange's metalmark, Lotis blue, Mission blue, Myrtle's silverspot, Oregon silverspot, Palos Verdes blue, Quino checkerspot, San Bruno elfin, Smith's blue
