2025 Dragon Run Summer Butterfly Count

This count covers segments of Essex, King and Queen, and Middlesex Counties on the Middle Peninsula of Virginia. 

There are extraordinary habitats on public and private properties and amazing biodiversity within the circle.  The count will cover segments of the Dragon Run, The Dragon Swamp, Two State Forests, and segments along the banks of the Mattaponi and Rappahannock Rivers, and inland portions of the three counties - exceptional rural settings and Mother and Father nature at its best.  

The event is sponsored again this year by the Friends of Dragon Run
