Thanks Rich. That is indeed a classic, and nice job on the photo.
The various Monarch migrations are amazing. In the case of ones west of the Rockies (and probably true for those in your area) the migration takes multiple generations, which makes one in awe of how the generation that returns to California (and maybe further north) knows how to get back home. To me this is incredible. A small butterfly, with a brain many thousands of times smaller than ours, can do things we can't do. Isn't mother Nature and evolution mind-boggling?
