Lovely! I don't think I have seen any monarchs here this summer. But then, there haven't been many of the other varieties either. I wonder if it has something to do with the heat and dryness?
Lovely! I had a monarch visit today as well and snapped a few photos during lunch time. I see the yellow and blue swallowtails in June and July but the Monarchs don't usually show up until August. They are especially abundant when the Sedum are blooming in September.
Wonderful blessing Snap! I'm always happy to see a butterfly light on a flower :)

May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun
And find your shoulder to light on,
To bring you luck, happiness and riches
Today, tomorrow and beyond.
