I was getting a little concerned that we had not seen a Monarch butterfly yet this year. I may have seen one in our yard but was not able to get close enough to confirm it was not a viceroy. This was got me all excited. I love Monarch Butterflies.

We saw our first Monarch Butterfly of the season this week. I didn't expect to see three, and maybe even four on the same day. This is very late in the season to see them. Its odd but we have not seen many of viceroy butterflies either.

Well its the second week of October and temperatures are much lower .. but we are still seeing butterflies. We saw this Monarch Butterfly on October 10. That is nuts. It was sunny but temp was around 50°F. Amazing.
Others have told me on Facebook that they are seeeing them too .. I know this will come to an end, but it is sure fun for now.

We are seeing more Monarch butterfly recently. This one was shy, keeping her wings closed until she flew away. I was hoping to see her colors but it was still great to capture this photo.
