It is time for the shift in seasons. Are you ready for it? Summer with all its warmth and sunshine is quickly fading away. Fall is here. The weather is fairly nice during the day and the nights are cool. All of nature seems to be getting ready for the winter months ahead.
Yesterday, I happened upon a beautiful Monarch butterfly. It was absolutely gorgeous. Talk about taking a trip... These little butterflies travel to Mexico every year. This year the warmer temperatures are giving them more time to travel.
Every fall this magical event takes place. With instincts alone, these butterflies travel to only 12 mountaintops in Central Mexico from North America and Canada. These mountains are located just west of Mexico City. Their habitat is a very rare and unique fir forest. It only grows at elevations of 10,000 feet or higher.
To me this is absolutely amazing. So take the time to look for these wonderful creatures. You will not see them again until 2009!
