I am starting a new section for Rex about his work on the Butterfly Farm as well as the 60's tagging program Rex conducted with the Australian Museum in Sydney.

Rex identified and tagged new species of Butterflies


Rex operated the Wilberforce Butterfly farm out from Windsor in the 80's. Many school excursions travelled to the farm. Many of you would have taken photographs or have a story to tell, you can write it here or email myself or Rex and Heather.

The items on display in the museum represents a lifetimes work. Mr Gilroy began collecting when he was seven. As he got older his interest in research increased and Mr Gilroy has long been a full time researcher. He believes his museum and butterfly farm will be unique when they are completed.
