Lincoln Brower, Champion of the Monarch Butterfly dies at 86.

[Catherine]

He made a difference in the world and he certainly made a difference for the monarch butterflies. All the marvelous things we know about Monarchs we wouldn't know without the work of Lincoln Brower.

I could say the world is a poorer place without him, except that he did so much that the world is a better place and nothing can change that. The Rainbow Bridge is a better place.

I checked my Milkweed and many of the plants have a lot of eggs on them. I am not sure they are Monarch eggs because this is the first year I have had many plants doing well.  I am going to watch them and if they hatch there will be many more Monarch caterpillars and I have enough milkweed plants to feed them.

Like I said, Lincoln may be gone but his legacy lives on.
