Latest obsession: Monarchs 🦋 👑 . I’ve been reading a ton of books related to sustainability & conservation, and realized that these critters are WAY underrated. . They’re an important pollinator, just like our 🐝, but they’re a little different because they migrate from North America to Mexico (&back) every year. Wut. . They’re so beautiful yet their populations are dwindling 😦 due to, YOU GUESSED IT, pesticides. FU Monsanto. . But really – this sight is something our grandchildren may never see if we keep up on this path of planetary destruction. . Be sure to catch some of our new designs coming out about these beauties, and let us know what you think! 🦋🦋🦋 . Also, check out our latest blog post & video about these insects and don’t forget to spread awareness & SHARE 💚 . Btw – this photo is them on their migration in Mexico, where they stay for the winter! 🙌🏼

The monarch butterfly is the insect species with the longest migration trajectory, which is incredible by itself. The side-effect that happens due to the migration is just icing on the cake. 

The butterflies stay in Mexico for 4-5 months, completely covering the oak, pine, and oyamel trees. They spend the cold mornings in clusters and they’re not really visible, but as soon as it gets warm, they open their orange-black wings wide and fly around, creating a magical sight.

The forest offers the butterflies everything they need to reproduce: the perfect temperature, clear streams, and silence. People can visit the forest, but they should stay quiet to not disturb the butterflies.
