How to Tell a Butterfly from a Moth
 Distinguishing a moth from a butterfly should be easy, right?
Butterflies are renowned for their bright colors, and moths have a reputation for drabness and nighttime flight—but many don’t fit this pattern.
Is this a butterfly or a moth? Find out and learn how to tell the difference.
Where in Mass Audubon Are We Now?
Congratulations to everyone who guessed that the last photo featured in Explorations was taken at Wildwood, Mass Audubon's overnight camp in Rindge, New Hampshire. Of those
with correct guesses, Debra was chosen at random to be the lucky winner of a pocket field guide.
Ready to guess another Mass Audubon wildlife sanctuary?
From this view, it doesn't look like much has changed in the decades since this photo was taken. But that couldn't be farther from the truth for this sanctuary that doesn't have the word "sanctuary" in its name. What also makes it unique: it's one of the few Mass Audubon locations that features animals that have been rescued and could not survive in the wild.
Email your guess by July 15 and you could win a pocket field guide.
Found a Baby Bird?
 When you come across a baby bird out of its nest, it’s hard to resist the urge to come to the rescue. But most of the time it’s best to do nothing.
Many birds that people try to rescue are still being cared for by their parents and should be left alone.
