2020 Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge Photo Contest
This large, black and orange butterfly is likely one of the most iconic insects in the world. The monarch's annual life cycle and migration, its total reliance on milkweeds to complete this cycle and the spectacular aggregations of millions of monarchs at overwintering sites in Mexico and California are legendary. The monarch has been the subject of numerous books, research papers, classroom programs, and science fair projects for decades. This popular and once abundant species is now, however, in jeopardy. Turnbull and the Xerces Society will be hosting a monarch butterfly workshop on Saturday, June 23, 2018 at 9 am.
