And More Bugs! Visit the Butterfly House at Brookgreen Gardens
Whispering Wings Butterfly Experience
Somehow I missed this one until I just found it on the Brookgreen website:
I plan to take my husband and daughter here sometime in April and get some great photos.
It features a lush garden filled with tropical plants where hundreds of butterflies soar through the air. Monarch, Zebra Longwing, Polydamas Swallowtails, Pipevine Swallowtails, Spicebush Swallowtails, Julias, Buckeyes, Queens, Painted Lady, and American Lady are just a few of the species that call Whispering Wings home. Interpretive signs throughout the exhibit and benches provide a restful place to watch their delicate beauty in flight.

The exhibit closes October 31
