I've seen them in California at the "Natural Bridges State Park" but it was too early in the season and only a few hundred had gathered. This was about all I saw.
kevinryn,
¿sacaste estas fotos? ¡son impresionantes!
Lo siento carmen yo no tomé éstos. No tengo una cámara digital o una buena cámara en eso.
Please look at this excerpt from the Expansion section of this lesson.
>No supe que era una hembra hasta que me lo explicó.
>(I didn't know it was male until he explained it to me.)
These two statements contradict each other..'hembra' is female,, and the English version says the opposite....'it was male'....
De niña crecíamos las plantas que atraían las mariposas monarcas. Teníamos las mariposas monarcas en el jardín a menudo. Qué bonita!
En diciembre fui con unos amigos a ver las monarcas en Mexico. Fue bien impresionante! Había mariposas por todas partes...en el aire, en los árboles, en la tierra. Casi no pudimos caminar. Si tienen la oportunidad de ir a Michoacán, les recomiendo que visiten un santuario. Un día claro con mucho sol es lo mejor.

The mistake is fixed. Hembra is female. You are right.
En el otoño vemos las mariposas monarcas en nuestro jardín. Están en el viaje largo a México.
He leido que mariposas monarcas necesitan tres generaciones viajar de Canada a Michoacan. Creo que es asombroso que algo tan pequeno puede volar tan lejos.
I have read that monarch butterflies need three generations to travel from Canada to Michoacan. I think that it's amazing that something so small can fly so far.
Las mariposas monarcas son muy común en Minnesota- en el verano.
