Dear Students and Teachers,
Greetings from your friends at Journey North! Thank you for taking care of the monarch butterflies this winter. We're glad you'll be tracking their migration north with us this spring.

It's been an interesting week! Sixteen new sightings have been reported since our last update. Fresh new butterflies are now being seen along with the old. These young butterflies are the children of those that over-wintered in Mexico.
