Nice post, OP. I’d love to see them.

Our butterfly population has been ravaged over the last 50 years or so. Presume it’s nowhere near as bad over there?

Don't let POTUS hear this. Millions of illegal South American butterflies forming a caravan of colour and migrating north...

You're right.

No, they entered administration in 2017. These are Virgin butterflies who are being paid 80% of their flying time by the Ecuadorians, the other 20% is being paid by the british taxpayer.

Just watched a nature program last week on this very phenomenon as they rose up together to take their last flight. As winter comes to a close in Mexico one of the most beautiful spectacles in mother nature erupts as a cascade of half a billion monarch butterflies take to flight,.Absolutely breathtaking.
