Monarch Butterfly

I planted milk weed last year and they came back. This year I have 3 caterpillars on them. I just learned that this beautiful butterfly is in danger if being extinct. I did notice that this year I really have not seen too many of them. I will be watching my babies.

CBee Three is better than none! You‘re doing your part to increase the population and that‘s wonderful 😊 2y

IndoorDame I just learned that too and it made me so sad 😭 Let us know how yours do this season! 2y

AmyG I hope yours make it. Ilearned this too and it‘s just beyond sad. 2y

This monarch is chowing down. As you can see It let me up close to it.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful!! I love butterflies 🦋 3y

SamAnne We have far fewer butterflies this year in our garden. Too dry. 3y

quirkyreader @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I‘m surprised that it let me that close. 3y

quirkyreader @SamAnne Sadly the butterfly population is dropping due to people not knowing how important their habitats are. 3y

SamAnne @quirkyreader yes. I plant lots of pollinator plants and always have water available. Our excessive heat and drought conditions are doing a number on all kinds of critters this summer. 3y

Another #postofdistractions for @kaye —this is probably my favorite and silliest pic of late—photobombing my husband at the Monarch Grove in Pacific Grove, CA over New Year‘s. This is a pretty accurate depiction of us...

I know this isn‘t book related, but I wanted to share. A dear friend gave us a monarch chrysalis. The butterfly emerged today. The world is an amazing, beautiful place!
