Honk if you’ve seen an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail in Cambridge, Mass. this summer. These butterflies gather nectar from a wide range of flowers (and thus are “generalists”) but their caterpillars depend on the family of plants that includes Queen Anne’s Lace, carrots,and dill. Join us at the Honk! Parade on October 13 and you might get to carry one of our Eastern Tiger Swallowtail giant puppets.
