Monarch Migration | Environment

You'll soon be seeing a lot more beautiful butterflys floating through the region.

Typically monarch butterfly's born after August 15th will migrate south to California and Mexico.

As part of a large research project these monarchs are being tagged so they can be tracked.

To help in this effort the Hormel Nature Center is teaching kids how to tag the monarchs.

There are two classes open to children ages 10, 11 & 12.  Classes run from 1:00 – 3:30 PM on August 19th & 26th.
