Hey Kim lovely spotting! Since you have updated identity can you also remove from Monarch Migration? Thanks for your help!

Kim - These are actually Queen butterflies, which are closely related to Monarchs. They can be difficult to tell apart, especially with their wings closed. See this for more info: http://myfloridabackyard.blogspot.com/20...
