Monarch butterflies are on their way to Mexico

As the seasons begin to change and colder weather draws closer, people may be starting to see more butterflies in the air around the Big Country.

Monarch butterflies have started their migration down south to Mexico and are currently fluttering around the Big Country.

During the warmer months of spring and summer, Monarch butterflies are found in Canada and east of the Rocky Mountains, but around August, they start their migration journey and head down to southwestern Mexico.

Monarch butterflies make it down in the southern parts of the United States around early October.
