Painted Lady Butterfly (Vanessa cardui) in my backyard, September 2019. These beautiful Butterflies migrate south for the winter, the next generation returning north in the spring. They are found worldwide, performing this north-south migration around the globe. . . For more fascinating natural history and facts be sure to check out @fieldguidespodcast !

Bonus Post! Today is National Flight of the Monarch Day. Here's a Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus) in my backyard today. Monarchs undertake an annual migration from the Northern United States and Southern Canada to the Southern States and Mexico. Their larvae feed exclusively on Milkweed plants, so if you want to see Monarchs in your garden, plant some Milkweed and have butterfly-attractive flowers nearby to fuel them for their journeys. . . . . . . . #feeltheflutter #flightofthemonarch #monarchnationca #nature #ontario #monarchbutterfly #monarchbutterflies #monarchbutterfliesofinstagram #danausplexippus #ontariobutterflies #migration #migratorybutterfly #monarchmigration #monarchbutterflygarden #butterfliesofinstagram #butterflyphotography #insects_of_our_world (at Simcoe, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEMoXDgg9VC/?igshid=1943ovetfofzz
