A tagged Monarch butterfly with the code # AJPH637 has been recaptured in El Rosario, Mexico! That's 1,450 miles as the crow...errr... butterfly flies. A whole 30 hours of driving for humans!

The butterfly was tagged at Dee's Bee and Butterfly Festival last year on Sept 5, 2025. The Monarch Watch program data should be published on their website in April/May. https://www.monarchwatch.org/

Get ready to check your certificates, if you tagged a butterfly at the festival last season. Thank you to everyone who came out to take part in citizen science. Mark your calendars for Sept 11, 2026 for Dee's Bee & Butterfly Festival to tag a butterfly!
