Dr Suzi Bond ‘Taking a closer look: the fascinating lives of our local butterflies.’

This talk will introduce you to the wonderful variety of butterflies to be found here in the ACT, from common butterflies encountered in gardens through to cryptic species restricted to nature reserves. Suzi will be happy to sign copies of her new field guide after the talk.

Dr Suzi Bond works on biodiversity accounting at the ABS and conducts butterfly research as a Visiting Fellow at the ANU (in collaboration with CSIRO). She is lead author of the first field guide to the butterflies of the ACT.
