The Monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) have arrived once again in Tulsa. They are on their annual migration south to Mexico for the winter.
I discovered these in Tulsa’s River Parks this morning. They were reluctant to pose for photos, intent on the nectar found on these wildflowers (goldenrod?).
Buen viaje a Mexico! Nos vemos en la primavera!
We’ve seen several in our garden in the last few days and my kids are thrilled! They are so beautiful. I am so glad I decided to have some butterfly friendly plants put in the garden!
