A friend spotted these and gave me a heads up! Monarchs travel up to 2,000 miles from Canada to Mexico at this time of year. I've never seen them clustering on a pine tree before so I was very excited to get some pictures. Sometimes they'll fill a whole tree. My dream is to make it to Mexico someday to see where they winter over.

Who could imagine that such delicate beauties could migrate such a long distance? They're obviously a lot tougher than they look. Let's hope that trip to Mexico will be soon Hilda.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine

The most precious jewel you'll ever have around your neck are the arms of your children♥
What a great capture, and how nice they told you about it. I have never seen them clustered up like this. Tigs♥ =^..^=

The question is not what you look at, but what you see ~ Marcel Proust
Must be a half way resting spot. They probably get pretty tired going that distance. Beautiful shot, Hilda.

You are only given one life make the most of it for God and others around you.
I've seen this type of cluster just once, and I didn't have my camera. It was unforgettable. Great pic, Hilda!

Very nice Hilda, We haven't had a heavy migration thru here for thirty years but it is still fresh in my memory. Monarchs were everywhere I looked for several days. Thanks for reminding me.

Don't be afraid to take a big step. You can't cross a chasm in two small jumps.
This is a great shot! And it's really interesting how the butterflies do this. :)
