Hello Spring! Yup, we get Monarch Butterflies usually visiting the Mexican Butterfly Weed. Then, come the Caterpillars munching them to the nubs. Totally worth it. thetropicalgrower.com/gardening-ph... #butterfly #monarchbutterfly #flowers #photography #nature #spring #happy #gardening #monarch
The image shows a large orange and black butterfly nectaring on a white and yellow flower. This is a Monarch. It is probably the best known of all migratory butterflies, migrating from overwintering sites in the south to its northern home in the spring and back again in the fall. Most Monarchs seen during the summer in the Adirondack Mountains and in the rest of eastern and central North America are part of a migratory process that ends in Mexico. However, no single individual makes the round-trip journey. The migration process involves several Monarch generations.

The title really says it all.
We're suing Fish and Wildlife to force them to set a date for listing the #MonarchButterfly on the #EndangeredSpecies List 🦋🦋
These iconic insects were proposed in 2024, and a final decision was due in December, 2025.
But that decision never came.

Recent headlines celebrate a 64% increase in #MonarchButterfly populations. But is this the turning point for these pollinators? In this episode of Animal, Nature, and You, I explore what this increase means and the ongoing challenges monarchs face.

This year, the butterflies occupied 7.24 acres of forest, up from 4.42 acres last winter — thanks to #conservation efforts across the Americas to restore habitats and combat pesticides to ensure safe migrations, the reports offer hope for #monarchbutterfly recovery! 🦋

Monarch population glow-up!?🤔 Look, I’m not trying to glaze your aura, and yeah, in the upcoming episode of Animals, Nature, and You, I’ll just put the fries in the bag - but not before I spill the lore on monarch butterfly populations.
#MonarchMigration #MonarchButterfly #AnimalsNatureAndYou
Best news of the year so far.
It’s certainly in short supply.
Get out there and plant natives, people!

A close-up, professionally enhanced 4:3 crop of a painted Monarch butterfly mural on a clean, white, corrugated metal surface in Tijuana. The entire background consists of clean, even, horizontal ridges of white metal. The butterfly is centered, featuring intricate black wing structures. The wing segments show a distinct color gradient, starting as vibrant orange on the left and seamlessly transitioning to deep, saturated red on the right. Both wings include characteristic small, crisp white dots along the upper margins and tail segments. The black body and antennae are sharp and defined against the bright white surface. The lighting is diffused and even, removing perspective distortion and imperfections, presenting the artwork with maximum clarity and color saturation.

This powerful Monarch mural has colors shifting from a vibrant orange to a deep red.
It's a symbol of transformation and the borderless nature of beauty. 🇲🇽✊

First #MonarchButterfly caterpillar of the year! I haven't seen any butterflies but this one seems to be well on its way. It's on my tropical milkweed. The narrow leaf plants were not as resilient this year. #SoCal

A close-up macro scene captures a monarch butterfly perched on the center disk of a large sunflower. The butterfly rests with its wings partially open, revealing the distinctive pattern of warm amber-orange panels framed by bold black veins and dotted with small white spots along the edges. The delicate wings appear slightly translucent in the sunlight, allowing a soft glow to pass through the thin membranes. Its slender black body and fine antennae lean forward as it feeds among the dense cluster of tiny florets in the flower’s center. The sunflower dominates the right side of the image, its broad golden petals curving outward from a textured central disk filled with tightly packed seeds and pollen. The petals catch the sunlight, creating rich highlights and soft shadows that emphasize their smooth, velvety surface. The butterfly’s legs grip the disk while its proboscis reaches into the florets, suggesting a quiet moment of pollination. In the background, additional sunflowers appear softly blurred, forming a warm field of yellow shapes and green stems that dissolve into creamy bokeh. Sunlight filters through the leaves and petals, producing a luminous summer atmosphere. The scene feels intimate and serene, focusing attention on the fragile interaction between insect and flower amid the vibrant abundance of a sunflower field.

The urgency to act is clear: the future of the #MonarchButterfly depends on local efforts to plant & restore native milkweed & nectar plants. Join me in encouraging local leaders to sign the #MayorsMonarchPledge! Via @wildlifeaction.bsky.social app.sosha.ai/s/NroU8eYW
