The Monarchs are Here


We started seeing a few Monarch Butterflies in our yard in the last few weeks and now they are everywhere. They are particularly fond of the Zinnias and Lantana and are eating nonstop at the flowers in the garden. We will have to take a drive to the Butterfly grove in Pismo soon. November and December are when the count is the highest but we go several times each year as it is only a few miles from us on Highway 1.

What amazing creatures they are to fly so far and to know just where to find their resting place for the winter.
