Monarch butterflies are beautiful insects that are famous for their cross-country migration every spring and fall. They are Minnesota’s state butterfly!
…
Here in Minnesota, most of us are familiar with the Canada goose migration every spring and fall. These noisy birds fly over our state every spring, taking up residence in ponds and lakes before it is time to head south once again. But there’s another famous migration that takes place in Minnesota every year. It’s much quieter, but just as beautiful. Millions of monarch butterflies are headed straight for Minnesota this spring.
…
Every spring, millions of monarch butterflies begin a migration from their wintering site in Mexico. They fly north into the United States and parts of Canada.
In just a few short weeks, these colorful insects will be ready to depart once again. Tens of millions of monarchs will fly out of Minnesota between July and October. They’ll head back to their winter grounds in Mexico.
Those butterflies that make the journey will spend the winter in warm weather before continuing the cycle again next spring. The monarch butterfly migration brings beautiful insects to Minnesota every year!
Have you ever spotted a monarch in Minnesota? While these butterflies still arrive by the millions, their numbers are dwindling. For more information about the insects, check out the DNR monarch butterfly page. And for information about attracting the butterflies to your yard, check out their butterfly garden page.
The Hubbell House is a historic restaurant in the tiny southern Minnesota town of Mantorville. Minnesota became a state on May 11, 1858, but people have been in the Land of 10,000 Lakes for much longer. The state was first home to Native Americans, who have been here for millennia. Then, the first European settlers arrived in the 1600s. A couple hundred years later, one of the state’s first restaurants was established. This historic restaurant has been around since before Minnesota was even a state, and it still serves up delicious food. Take a look:
The Hubbell House has a long history. The present building, built in 1856, predates Minnesota by two years.
