The Friends of the Monarch Trail invite the public to their annual Migration Celebration.

 

Sunday August 26th, 4 – 7:30 pm.

 

The location is 9810 Eschweiler Dr. in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.

 

Featuring:

Citizen scientists with displays—everything you ever wanted to know about Monarch Butterflies!

Continuous Guided Tours along the Trail to show the roosting areas, describe the micro-climates associated with them and the history of the preservation.

A good migration is anticipated this year and we are hoping they will come through our roosting area in big numbers!

Come on out to this delightful family event: a picnic, music, education, in a natural setting with butterflies.

Wear your wings! Bring your hatched monarchs for release!    (And….. the Super Moon rises at 8:00 pm!)

 

The weather might be “iffy” with a threat of rain.  Please bring proper rain gear and/or umbrellas.  If there is threatening weather, the event may be cancelled.

*Please see Facebook feed on theMonarchTrail.org or the Friends of the Monarch Trail Facebook page directly for updates.

 

See you Sunday!
