Welcome to the mon@rch nature blog and I hope you join us in some of our nature adventures through the Allegany State Park area!
I am a naturalist, field biologist and nature photographer from the Western New York area. I have started exploring nature writing through this blog and it truly has been fun sharing my numerous adventures with everyone. Thanks to the many other authors that help me with my post and they will be sharing some of their nature explorations.
I have always had a latent interest in birds and photography and have been lucky enough to find time to explore these interests over the last few years. I am very thankful to the Cattaraugus County Bird Club for getting me started, sharing their wealth of knowledge and for their wonderful programs. And many thanks to Tom for letting me share some of my adventures and photos on the Monarch Nature Blog.
Thank you for taking the time visiting and commenting on this blog.

We have had similar but more often American Ladies–finding them every day.

We had several at our house and we’ve never had them before. My in-laws also had some and called us outside to look at them. They were trying to land on us. They are beautiful.

Funny you should mention that. I had 2 chasing each other while I was out working in the yard the other day (Yes, the sun actually came out once.) and I have never seen them here before. I was very excited to add them to my 2010 yard list. ~karen

I just saw four chasing eachother around in my backyard on Long Island..Very entertaining to watch them chase, take a break, then chase eachother again…Landing on my shoulder as well. Tried capturing a photo of them but they move fast!
