Greetings, 

El Rosario Sanctuary 

In El Rosario, the colony undergoes a graceful transformation, gradually descending from the La Virgencita area where it has resided throughout the season. Bright golden-brown clusters adorn the landscape, captivating onlookers with their exquisite and whimsical forms, illuminated by the sunlight. Mating activities are on the rise in El Rosario, with reports of potential triples involving two males and one female!

Sierra Chincua Sanctuary - Migration Begins

Meanwhile, the colony in Sierra Chincua, still situated in El Llanito, begins its migration. Like a crown shedding its jewels, the monarchs cascade downhill in search of cooler surroundings, seeking refuge from the rising temperatures amidst shade, foliage, and streams. Mating behavior in Sierra Chincua appears to be gradually gaining momentum, with occasional pairs starting to emerge. In the village of Angangueo, the first individuals of the remarkable Super Generation emerge from their hibernation in the mountains, signaling the onset of the great exodus.
