So you thought we didn’t have many monarchs here in Milam County…
These little beauties were in my pollinator garden just a few weeks ago (the last week in October).
They were nectaring on blue mist flowers, which are very easy to grow.
Yes, we can make a difference for our monarch friends. This is what we do as Texas Master Naturalists. We protect the natural world so that those who come after us will get to enjoy them like we do. What an honor for us.
Make sure you plant what the butterflies need to survive. And keep on learning!
