Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, Carlisle, Massachusetts
Meadows are in bloom
and I expect those colorful flutters amidst the flowers,
hoping that some may come closer to feel their ripples...
A single Monarch is over there, suffusing the whole meadow with motion...
ONLY ONE...
Cannot but think of the recent decision from the International Union for Conservation of Nature
to place
Beloved Monarch Butterfly on the Red List of species at risk to become extinct.
ONLY ONE...
