Maryann, the 2006 data is out, but not in the database yet. They are overwhelmed, and underfunded. Woo!!! Hoo!!! 2 of mine made it to El Rosario!!! I just knew that mine were making it to Mexico. First, my Pipevine haven, and now this. I'm beyond words!!!! :) If you see any of your tags, please e-mail them with the Tag number, date, sex, and whether reared or wild, along with your name. I don't know that this is conclusive. Good luck! Here is a link that might be useful: 2006 Monarch tagged recoveries

thanks, sandy! i was down at that part of the property about to stake off where i want to install my 'native garden' and noticed it! i could have sworn i saw a seed pod, but when i got back from getting my camera it was dark and i couldn't locate it... i'll look again tomorrow. at least now i know what to look for!! i just think it is so funny that i have literally spent hours cruising around these back roads and didn't find any (probably overlooked a lot), but found some at home :)

Watermelon, strawberries, mangoes, cantaloupe. They love 'em all! Oh yeah and oranges when we get them in Dec/Jan.

Thank you Sandy..your tags are now in flight on the wings of Connecticut Monarchs which are hopefully heading Southward. Even though it's a little late for tagging, we'll hope for the best. Maryann in CT
