The annual butterfly exhibit at the Greenburgh Nature Center in Scarsdale is attracting many small visitors this year. Located in a new plant meadow, vistors can walk into a natural setting to learn about butterflies and the native plants they depend upon.

The experience is amazing at any age, but for youngsters, having a monarch butterfly land on your finger is truly awesome.
