Monarch Butterfly Seminar

Henri has been learning about Monarchs all summer long and has been looking after four different caterpillars throughout their amazing transformation process. He (and his dad) learned so much about the fascinating Monarch butterfly's life cycle during a two-hour seminar at Wings of Paradise during their monthly homeschool day activity, which on Sept. 15 was dedicated to the Monarch. The group released a dozen tagged Monarch butterflies which we will be able to track online next spring to find out if they made it safely to Mexico. Henri was thrilled to find his first two Monarch caterpillars during the activity but unfortunately it was catch-and-release. Thankfully, a few days later Henri found two more during a trail hike closer to home.
