🦋 From Journey North: The first monarchs begin to arrive in overwintering region! 🦋

"The extraordinarily punctual arrival of our fantastic migrant monarchs began Saturday, Oct. 31, at 1:30 p.m., despite no trace of a single monarch during the previous 72 hours while in the lookout!"

"Joyas de naranja vibrante, semillas de generaciones de familia que alguna vez no sepultamos, sino que sembramos de regreso a la tierra cuando partió su vida, ahora retoñan y regresan a celebrar con nosotros la alegría de la Vida, nuestro legado de tradición familiar y la certeza de nuestro reencuentro después del pacífico tránsito a la otra dimensión.

Bienvenida sea la Súper Generación a la Casa de Invierno de sus ancestros!"

Bright orange jewels, seeds from generations of our family that we did not bury, but rather planted back in the soil when their life departed, are sprouting and returning now to celebrate with us the joy of life, our family legacy and traditions, and the certainty of our reunion after their peaceful transition into the other dimension.

Welcome, the monarch super generation, to your forefathers' winter home! 🦋

October 6 @ 11 AM PT / 12 PM MT / 1 PM CT / 2 PM ET

A growing number of our community members live in neighborhoods with Homeowner’s Associations, covenants, or deed restrictions. With a little creativity and a lot of love for our insect neighbors, these spaces can be transformed into havens for pollinators!

Join us tomorrow for this webinar, where Xerces Society staff Aaron Anderson and Jacqueline Buenrostro will discuss the many ways we can support the amazing invertebrates within HOA communities, with tips, tricks, and new resources to share for creating and maintaining habitat that is “HOA-ready”.

Register here today! ➡ https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ApikAmSVSMyFHloNgyML0g

This webinar will be recorded and available on the Xerces YouTube channel on the Bee City USA Playlist. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. To request a reasonable accommodation or for inquiries about accessibility, please contact [email protected].
