It's been a long journey!

The monarchs are starting to arrive and I'm sure it's been a long journey for them. I can hardly wait to find a chrysalis and watch one come out. So exciting and so beautiful!

I was equally excited when I saw my first Monarch flit through the yard. What a journey they've been on... Beautiful picture of this one.

Handsome boy. Astonishing to think born in Canada, overwinter in Mexico & then travel north...
Do you grow native milkweed for them?

@jesika2 l don't grow it but l live near a field that has thousands of milkweed.

@fayefaye That's wonderful too hear, sadly too much has been lost as farming practices change which obviously greatly affects the Monarch and other insects.
