Monarch Migration and Tagging Workshop

Ticketed Event ! The Sterling Nature Center is a roosting and feeding resource for migrating monarch butterflies. Join us

for a presentation on the life cycle and migration patterns of monarch butterflies. We will also cover

identifying monarch butterflies, differentiating them from viceroy butterflies, how to determine gender,

and explain the tagging program and procedure. Data collected will be submitted to Monarch Watch,

the organization that oversees the international monarch tagging program. We will then go out into the

field for a demonstration of netting and tagging, weather permitting. Participation is limited; you must have a ticket
