We saw so many Monarch Butterflies this past Saturday at Stone Harbor Point.

The path from the parking lot down to the beach is lined with goldenrod in full bloom, making it a veritable butterfly paradise.

When I focused in on this one I saw the tag and tried to get a good shot of the number so I could report it.

I did, although I suspect this individual was probably tagged nearby.

As we were pulling out of the parking lot, I spied a lady with a butterfly net and she was carrying a little box. I suspect she had a tagging kit .

 

Here's a link on how they tag them.
