At 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 8th, a fun and informative presentation on Butterflies of the American Prairie will be offered at the Montgomery Village Hall at 200 N. River Street in Montgomery.

Butterflies of the American Prairie explores the butterfly species of northeastern Illinois, their life cycles, and their ecology, with special emphasis on the relationship between caterpillar food plants and habitat. Presenter Doug Taron's digital images showcase local species from urban environments, prairies, wetlands, and woodlands and document regional butterfly conservation efforts being undertaken at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum in Chicago.

This free event is being offered by the Village of Montgomery. There is no charge and the building is handicapped accessible. The monthly Senior Lunch and activity will begin at 11:00 a.m. after the presentation. There is a $4 cost for the lunch and pre-registration one week in advance is required.

For additional information on this event, please call the Montgomery Village Hall at (630) 896-8080 ext. 1559.
