EventMonarch Migration Sighting
Date of Sighting08/26/02
CommentsMy class and I released two butterflies yesterday at 3:00 p. m. that we had caught earlier in the day. Later about 6:30, one of my former students found one of them at her house which is about 6 3/4 miles from my classroom! She noticed that it was tagged, wrote down the number, and called her biology teacher to see if it was one of his. When it wasn't, then he contacted me to see if I had tagged it. We were so excited to have one of our butterflies spotted.
