Description

An evening learning about and tagging Monarch butterflies!

The Monarch Watch Tagging Program is a large-scale community science project that was initiated in 1992 to help understand the dynamics of the monarch's spectacular fall migration through mark and recapture. The Monarch butterfly’s migration to Mexico began in early August, near Winnipeg, Manitoba. The migration peaks in our area in mid September, so this is a perfect time for Monarch tagging! Learn about the monarch life cycle and how to conduct this community science with PVAS Naturalist Laurel Schwartz!
