Monarch Butterfly Migration Update

• 🦋 A local Dallas resident, Greg Lefit, excitedly reported seeing the first monarch butterfly of the season, signaling the start of their migration south.
• ⚠️ The monarch population faced challenges in recent years due to widespread drought, which reduced flowering plants and limited food sources, resulting in the second-lowest forest area occupied by colonies in 2023-2024.
• 🌱 Good news: The monarch population doubled during the winter of 2024-2025, and planting milkweed and nectar plants like Texas Lantana, blue mist flower, autumn sage, and Turks cap can further support their growth.
