RHOVEMBER Butterflies

Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. is the last founded women’s collegiate and post-graduate sorority in the National Pan-Hellenic Council (NPHC), also casually known as the Divine Nine. SGRho was founded on November 12th, 1922, at Butler University, and is the only NPHC Sorority founded on a PWI campus. Since it was founded by seven illustrious schoolteachers, many of the sorority’s service projects focus on women and children.

Welcome to the part of my *virtual* Butterfly Garden featuring every blue and yellow Butterfly I’ve captured in photo. This is to pay homage to the lovely ladies of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. whose colors are blue and gold, as well as pay homage to their affiliate group for teen girls - the Rhoers - whose mascot is the butterfly. Feel free to click on each picture to reveal more information as well as like, share, and subscribe to my website on my homepage for my bug-inspired content!

Long Project Description

Each species is carefully identified to the best of my ability using multiple photos in the field, my personal knowledge, and a few trusted sources. Some photos are sent to me by very kind family and friends, and I appreciate them so much for helping add to this collection. Their initials will be featured in the captions. Check out the links to other media and helpful websites in the captions and below!
