We tagged and released one female and one male monarch today, both raised from eggs that we found in our garden. They're the first monarchs that we have tagged. A friend gave us her left-over tags; it was easier than I expected, and we'll order some for ourselves next year. The second butterfly was nice enough to sit on a blind friend's hand for a few seconds before flying away, but it was quick enough that we mostly have pictures of the first one, which was reluctant to leave.
