New Hampshire Fish and Game and the University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension are recruiting volunteers to help with this year's butterfly count in Orford.

The effort is part of the state's Butterfly Monitoring Network, a citizen science project that tracks butterfly populations across New Hampshire. Participants will help survey for as many butterfly species as possible during the count period.

No specific date for the count was provided in the announcement. Organizers are asking interested residents to contact the network for details on training and participation.
