Reclaiming Wonders
The image is a collage of four photographs depicting scenic views and wildlife from a nature preserve in Florida. The top left photograph shows a serene lake or pond surrounded by reeds and vegetation, with a distant city skyline visible in the background under a partly cloudy blue sky. The top right photograph is a close-up of a flowering bush or shrub, likely a plant favored by monarch butterflies during their migration. The bottom left photograph features a historic lighthouse standing tall among trees and palm trees, with a clear blue sky above. The bottom right photograph captures a vibrant monarch butterfly perched on someone's hand, its striking orange and black wings fully spread, surrounded by foliage.

Florida Nature Preserve: Monarchs and Lighthouse

St Mark's preserve and lighthouse in Florida to see the monarch migration and other wildlife was our next stop. The Monarchs like only certain bushes and while we didn't see the millions purported to be there, we did see some full bushes and met a retired teacher who tags butterflies to track them into Mexico. And saw a Civil War era lighthouse fought over by Union and Confederate soldiers... East coast history!
