Monarch Butterflies

by | Nov 5, 2012 | Uncategorized

I am enthralled today by all of the YouTube videos I have been watching about monarch butterflies!  After I found out that they are a symbol of Day of the Dead celebrations I did a little research as to why.  Apparently they migrate to Mexico in the fall at the same time Day of the Dead celebrations are happening.  I think this is one of the most magnificent things of nature I have ever seen.  If I ever travel to Mexico, the town of Angangueo will be my first stop.
