Butterfly update!

Swipe to see how beautiful he is. 🥹

✨Meet Pegasus and Icarus . If things go to plan these guys will turn into “super monarchs” — the generation that migrates up to 3,000 miles from Canada and the northern U.S. all the way to Mexico each fall.

They are also going to cut timber from public lands and parks. This land is not theirs to sell and pillage. This is not a left or right issue. It is an America issue.
