Aerial Photos of the Butterfly Wing

The environment in the Christina Reiman Butterfly Wing gives the impression of a relaxed, tropical paradise, but a lot of maintenance goes into keeping it running. Even a relatively simple task such as changing a light bulb in the Butterfly Wing takes some work given the 30 foot height to the lights. I was able to take some interesting aerial photos from the lift machine which was used to change the light bulbs. If you’re interested in learning more about what it takes to keep this place running, consider attending one of our “Behind the Scenes” programs such as the “Butterfly Lab Tour” on June 17 (preregistration on this program is required).
