- **Event Description**: Monarchs will be migrating through Lawrence soon, and you're invited to come out for our annual butterfly tagging event! 

Tagging migratory monarchs provides valuable data on their fall migration, helping us to better understand this incredible species and how we can continue supporting them. Join us on Saturday, September 19, from 8a to 12p at the Baker University Wetlands & Discovery Center to take part in this exciting community science program.

Monarch Watch, the Lawrence Bird Alliance, and the Baker University Wetlands & Discovery Center are sponsoring monarch butterfly tagging for the public. There is no charge to participants and no experience is necessary - so bring yourself, your kids (all ages), your friends, and your neighbors!

Bring a net if you have one, but we will provide tags, nets, and instructions on how to catch, tag, and release monarchs. The monarchs are usually roosting or clustering until around 8:30a. As it warms up, they will begin foraging on the flowers.

We hope to see you there!

Monarch Watch is an education, conservation, and research program located on University of Kansas' West Campus focused on the monarch butterfly, its habitat, and its spectacular fall migration.

IMPORTANT: This year’s tagging event will again be held at the Baker Wetlands Discovery Center - 1365 N. 1250 Rd. Lawrence, KS 66046.
