Monarch migration

We again track the migration of the Monarch butterflies as they move north by checking the 2020 Monarch Migration Map!  A screen shot of the map showing reported first sightings of adults is below as reference (retrieved 28May2020) but follow the hyperlinks to check the interactive map! 

Notice that the first 2020 monarch spotted on the Canadian prairies was this week near Pincher Creek AB!

Visit the Journey North website to learn more about migration events in North America and visit their monarch butterfly website for more information related to this fascinating insect.
