My lucky day - I managed to get another photo of a Monarch

It landing on a Sunflower makes it even better.

My neighbor has a plot of milkweed as well. Monarchs love it and they feed on it.

Last summer I had a bunch of Monarchs in the yard all summer long.

So far this year I've only seen 2 Monarch butterflies.

I believe they are being hurt by climate change as well.

It's sad!!!
