Just a handful of tags (possibly local, given how close together the numbers are?) among hundreds of untagged. Quite a show, considering the refuge had hosted their annual Monarch ...Butterfly Festival two weeks earlier, when they'd typically be passing through. Running a little late this year.Read More

Melissa McCarty Raulerson Monarch MGS759 was spotted today in Brenham Texas. This is the first time my husband and I have ever seen a butterfly with a tag. I have photographed Monarchs for several years and had no idea this happened! We are very excited now to see how many others we can spot!
