 On the Wings of the Monarch October 15, 2008
This video has some beautiful pictures and good information. It is a little more scientific than I wanted ; I intend to show this for children in grade school. Overall, I was happy with the quality of the video.

This one I will watch over and over again! The host of this documentary is so very charming and with her enthusiasm draws you completely into the story. Itys obvious that she experienced a great journey herself while following the life cycle and migration of the monarch butterfly. Every detail is recorded with incredible accuracy. What an awesome biological phenomenon-butterflies by the millions migrating like birds to over-wintering sites thousands of miles away in Mexico and then coming back to North America in the Spring! The close-up sequences of the metamorphosis are amazing. Youyll see for example the striped monarch caterpillar shedding its skin and turning into a jade-colored chrysalis decorated with goldyitys true, go see for yourself.

On the Wings of the Monarch is a beautiful film about a beautiful animal. I was very impressed by the detail in which they lead you through this amazing animals journey through life. Generally a very informative piece that takes you to some special places while following along this wonderful journey. The audience gets a full dose of what nature is about and why it should always be preserved. The Monarch butterflies are a noble species to back up a Royal effoft!

This is the kind of video I wish I had been exposed to when I was 10. Now I am catching up on what I've missed over 50+ years.
Well done!

Haven been intrigued since childhood on the Monarch, I bought this film to see some footage of there voyage. What I got was a voyage of my own as I went along on their travels to Mexico and back. Truely amazing legacies exist in these insects that is captured and portraid by the creators of this video. Great photography!
