Dear Students and Teachers,

Greetings from your friends at Journey North!

News From the Migration Trail:

Monarchs have now been reported from 4 new states and have crossed into
Canada! The first report from Canada was on May 13 from the province of
Ontario, near Niagara Falls.

The northernmost sighting came from South Dakota at latitude 43.55N. Did
you realize that portions of the United States are north of Canada?
