August 22, 2007 - A monarch (finally)

It rained and stormed all morning, raining out my trip to the mountains. But it cleared this afternoon and got really hot, with highs in the low 90's. I've been trying unsuccessfully recently to catch one of the monarch butterflies. They are so busy, however, that I haven't been able to capture one of them. This one is as close as I've come.
