The monarch butterflies are making their way back to Mexico. Their population is down and their prospects for survival, traversing the drought-plagued southern plains, diminished. The late summer rains have produced a profusion of native wildflower bloom, perhaps rendering enough sustenance to get them across the 1000 miles of hell.
Have captured and tagged 63 of the little critters over the past month...39 in the past couple of days...hope to tag out at 100 before the week is out.

We hardly see any out here in KY. This time of year makes me nostalgic for tagging. Good luck!
Managed to get 100 tagged again this year but over-all there were fewer to be seen.
