  3. Wonderful shots! Unfortunately, we have way fewer Monarchs here in Fredericksburg than previously in Karnes City, further south. I assume we’re not on their migration route here.

  8. Beautiful. I had one fly into the flat yesterday. Was interesting trying to capture it one handed to help it back outside, but I did manage. They need to be outdoors

  17. Used to see these all the time when a child, but not anymore. We do have Milkweed growing in our neighborhood so I hope to see some soon. Thank you for sharing those gorgeous photos.
