The Lonelyville Citizen Scientist Kid's and I tagged over 125monarch's in last ten days. With egg laying in abundance on our milkweed bushes planted over the last four years since Hurricane Sandy washed over our habitat. We are very happy with this season's migration counts so far, but are concerned the approaching storms down south will drive the 4G's inland away from flying over our barrier reef. WE believe the key to increased monarch numbers in our community is all due to planting and tending MILKWEED! If you plant clean, pesticide free milkweed... the monarch's will come.
