Join me on Saturday September 15th from 12:00PM (noon) to 4:00PM at the Ziibiwing Center of Anishinabe Culture & Lifeways for the annual Monarch Butterfly Celebration. I will be handing out pollinator posters and information on pollinator conservation.
I will also (hopefully) have Monarch butterflies to release on that date. We have been collecting caterpillars from the wild for the past week and have about sixty in various states of metamorphosis. The majority of our Monarch are now in chrysalises and should be emerging as adults a day or two in the days around the Butterfly Celebration. Every butterfly that we release will be tagged as part of the Monarch Watch Tagging Program.
Here are a few pics from the Monarch currently residing in our home.
