Really happy to caught this image of this beautiful Monarch butterfly today - on my iPhone 5.
The Monarchs migrate every fall starting in early October. This guy has a long trip ahead of him!

super shoot.
Nice pic
Thanks @muhajir - sorry I didn't have my camera with me but the iphone did an ok job. Hard to catch those very flighty butterflies.
Beautiful monarch butterfly...
Thanks @julee! Glad to see more of them this year. For a while there there weren't too many of them around.

I visited that place in mexico a few years back
That must have been amazing.
Love Monarchs! See my post about my Monarch caterpillars. We are expecting them to migrate through North Texas in about 2 weeks.

This is actually some awesome work! Followed
beautiful butterfly
i know, i felt really silly trying to follow it around while it moved from flower to flower...they do flitter!
I know, its an iphone 5 pic on a moving target. Usually I use a more effective camera but you can't tell those butterflies to only show up then 😊.
Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks @violetmed. Exciting to be able to catch the migration!
Thanks @video-master.
