The Return of the Monarch


Charlotte spotted a monarch fluttering around our backyard bushes and trees.  Caroline whispered to the butterfly, "Come back, come back."  It circled around us for several minutes allowing us to capture a few pictures.  
   




The monarch migration has begun.  For the next two months we should see an abundance of these beautiful creatures.  They have traveled several miles, most likely from Canada.  They will stop briefly in Texas then continue their journey to Mexico.
