The Big Butterfly Blend-In

Ulster Museum, Botanic Gardens, Stranmillis Road, Belfast, County Antrim, BT9 5AB
The Big Butterfly Blend In at the Ulster Museum

About

Stop by Discover Art, where we'll be learning all about camouflage using butterfly specimens. Colour in a paper butterfly and see how well it blends with a forest, city or meadow - how well camouflaged would your butterfly really be? Take your butterfly home or leave it on display in Discover Art as inspiration for other butterfly lovers.
