Monarch Butterfly
Rescue - 2009
For the past few years I
have had a small area of my backyard set aside for a stand of Milkweed in hopes
of Monarch Butterflies would use it for breeding.
This year
was generally poor - cool and damp and personally issues kept me from posting
the successes & there were some.
Started to plant Butterfly bushes in others yards to help make Mississauga a
Butterfly friendly City.
Last year's Grand Total = 452
2009 Grand Total = 104
Grand Total from 2006 is at least =
724
This years was about getting the community more involved and that
was a great success.
This year was about creating a better butterfly garden and again a great
success.
Lots of great pictures, video and special features - so bug me to post more,
show you can, I need to know.
Under Construction - very much so.
Persons of note who
attended the Monarch release.
More effort is being given to getting the public to come out and help set the
butterflies free
- to get everyone involved.
