The Sound Of Butterflies
How many butterflies does it take to make a noise in the woods? A few million. Watch (and listen!) as these monarchs put on a show at their overwintering site in Mexico. What did you think?

I spent part of my career as a “traveller”, driving from Kansas City to about 10 or 12 states. A LOT of time on the road by myself. I knew about the monarch migration from reading about it, and from seeing it in action. In late summer and early fall, I would have to be careful which route I took, because I could not resist dodging from side to side, trying my best NOT to hit one of these incredible creatures as I sped along at speeds that the local “County Mounties” would not have appreciated. It was worth it!

So beautiful. The narrator, Phil Torres, did an amazing job and so interesting.
Thanks for this spectacular video and information on the BEAUTIFUL MONARCHS.

I was there in 1975, two years after the sacred Oyamel pines were found to be the wintering home, on
the mountain tops in Mexico. I have a great picture of two young Mexican gendarmes, armed to the teeth
with automatic rifles, etc., walking down a mountain path thru the Monarchs; they have the guns resting in
one arm, and are pushing the myriad butterflies away from their faces and bodies with the other hand.
