As I work in the garden, I listen to gardening podcasts that cover all things garden related. I've heard in the last few years of the drop in numbers of the monarchs. I was amazed, because we had so many around the flowers, and we leave stands of milkweed in the pastures. Well, this year, I have noticed a drop in numbers. I live out in the country with plenty of open land and native plants, so I felt like our numbers would never drop. I'm thrilled each time I see one, and I try to do a quick painting in the moment. Perhaps they are a little late this year, one can only hope they are on their way! I just dropped this painting off at Powell Gardens! Come see this and more when you visit this beautiful place! Painting number 4601 in 4601 days.
