It was a delight to watch a flutter of Monarch butterflies here in Valley Ranch. I was on my usual walk routine and saw these beauties hovering by the side of a pond.
Thanks for reminding us about Monarch’s migrating through Dallas area. — It was a delight to watch a flutter of Monarch butterflies here in Valley Ranch.
