X-WR-CALDESC:Butterflies\, for nearly everyone\, are an exquisite and unive
 rsal symbol of hope and rebirth. Through imagery and words\, Lynn Teo Sima
 rski will share her quest to transform her yard—from one that is sterile t
 o butterflies and other native life—into a haven. Our widespread adoption 
 of monoculture lawns has left little habitat to support cherished butterfl
 ies and other creatures like bees and birds. Most of our imported “pest-fr
 ee” ornamental plants cannot nourish native pollinators. Lynn’s yard is in
  early metamorphosis\, but nature’s “flowers of the air” have begun breedi
 ng there anew. Her photos are a visual inspiration to “bring butterflies h
 ome” to every yard\, including church yards.\n\nLynn Teo Simarski is a sci
 ence writer and fine-art photographer. She gave a presentation previously 
 at St. Dunstan’s with her husband Guy Guthridge\, about Antarctica. Her ph
 otography website is www.lynnteosimarski.com.
