Vernon Elem.: "Challenge question # 6" Previous message: Perry Corsetti: "challenge question #6" Our class has enjoyed getting involved in the monarch migration. We thought if the butterflies take off too late they may get lost or the female may want to lay eggs before she finishes her journey and there may not be milkweed for the babies. If they leave too early they may die because there are not enough flowers, it will still be too cold, they will move slower and not have enough energy to make the complete journey. Because we had some nice springlike days in early February (up to 50 degrees) the warm weather could fake them out and they would die when the weather got colder again. Right now it is around 30 degrees each day and down to 0 degrees at night wishing you sunshine and rainbows Next message: Mt.
