My Lovely Monarch Butterfly
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
The other day I got a new bloom of those Mexican Sunflowers. Those tiny seeds were a really good investment. Now the garden has Monarch Butterflies as permanent residents. We have about four. If everything goes well, they will stay in Florida before heading out to Mexico.
Their butterfly games are a real joy to watch. They usually cluster together whenever there is a storm about to hit. The flowers in the photo are perfect. They are pointing upward and they have a lot of nectar. They have mainly nectar because the bees do not visit the flowers.
The bees usually stay up at front. Anyhow, I am going to make this little blog somewhat short on the weekend. I just wanted to show you the new photo I managed to get. Doesn’t it look great? The rains have done wonders for the garden. I hope you like.
