Butterfly Migration







Monarch butterflies travel from Canada and the United States each year to overwinter in central Mexico. We have wanted to see this phenomenon for several years and this year we finally got the chance. We went to Zitacuaro, Michoacan and it was amazing. We hired a guide and rode horses up to the top of the mountains where we were treated to a view of thousands of butterflies preparing for the return northern journey.
