At least four monarch butterflies were sighted at the A Rocha site in the Pembina Valley. Also, one was sighted in the Pembina Valley Provincial Park, located just beside the A Rocha site. (As we saw them in several locations, there may have been at least double that; but they may have been the same ones.) With dandelions in full bloom and in abundance, the monaarchs lit on theese blossoms.
The sightings happened during a hummingbird banding at A Rocha as well at the park later. It was during a family outing, and I will be sharing photos with my students who are regularly reminding me to check Journey North for sighting updates!
