This year, for the first time, monarchs reared by fifth graders were tagged. We are hoping that many of them will be found in Mexico.
 |
| Too delicate for kids to do, adults spent lunch tagging and inventorying gender. |
 |
| Tagged and released monarchs took their first sip of nectar from milkweed and butterfly bush flowers in our pollinator garden. |
 |
| Fifth graders watched and cheered: "Go to Mexico." |
 |
| Lots of excitement when an adult emerged from a chrysalis...leading to an impromptu version of Happy Birthday. |
 |
| Kids chanted: Are you one? And giggled when they stopped at that age. |
 |
| Hold still...can you spot the butterfly who mistook a shirt for a flower? |
