We went to mow our back yard and noticed as we came upon the trees there are thousands of monarchs perched in the trees! We have NEVER seen anything like this in our lives! It is the most amazing and beautiful thing! We have 4 or 5 trees that they seem to favor and they are just clustered in them.... this started about a week or so ago when we noticed a few and thought, "how nice!" Then gradually more and more came and we realized something amazing was happening! We are hoping this in not going to be one of those 'once in a lifetime' things as this is the first year we have lived in this home.
