This page is to promote the conservation of Monarch butterflies. You receive only the smallest fraction of my posts, so please drop by and scroll.

Let's share our discoveries, photographs and joy of one of the most incredible insects on earth. Every day I scour dozens of news articles, blogs, discussion lists, pages and groups and websites to bring you the best up to date information on what is happening in the monarch world. When you like, comment, or share, facebook sends the post to more people. This is the best way to get the most number of people inspired to conserve the monarch, and the rest of the ecosystem.

Community photo spotlight! Thank you to Sonja Crosby for sharing this photo.

Did you know that monarchs can see in ultraviolet (UV) light? While humans can't see UV light, monarchs and other pollinators can and use this ability for survival. For example, some flowers have evolved to display UV patterning, "advertising" their nectar so they can be pollinated. Monarchs can detect this, which helps them find sources of nectar to fuel up during the breeding and migration seasons.

Chatham Ontario, July 31. I used portrait mode on my iphone to blur the background ditch, road and sky.
