On Sunday night they had a report that a large part of forest (which is a quite small area) where they overwinter in Mexico is being forested so it is estimated that MN's monarch population will really dwindle in upcoming years. I sure hope not!Marshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06653985303549953889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2374808830322685957.post-87007401596297515892010-09-07T05:08:33.793-06:002010-09-07T05:08:33.793-06:00Although I knew about Monarchs migrating to Mexico...Although I knew about Monarchs migrating to Mexico, I didn't know about the 4 generations. Very interesting. <br /><br />Many more Monarchs than normal around here this year. Just yesterday there were 6 of them fluttering around like leaves in the area where I have a lot of Autumn Joy Sedum growing. <br /><br />Fabulous photos. <br /><br />donnadonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06950476333013336671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2374808830322685957.post-29662231414560906002010-09-06T11:49:45.067-06:002010-09-06T11:49:45.067-06:00That's cool!

What a treat to have found yourself in the midst of their migration. None of the three primary paths pass through our area so we never see them in great numbers.
