Every winter thousands of beautiful monarch butterflies migrate to Coronado Butterfly Preserve in Goleta, California. It is an amazing experience to see them in clusters on eucalyptus trees at the Elwood grove. It is the largest Monarch butterfly over-wintering groves in California and 2012-2013 butterfly season Alex and I are lucky enough to live a couple of minutes away from this natural treasure! So beautiful! 

Monarch butterflies can not survive cold winters, so they travel in masses up to 3000 miles to small groves along the California coast. How lucky are we to be able to see these spectacular creatures...
