Monarch Butterflies
The next long speLl ol' iltio weather should see this year's monarch butterflies out in full colour. Already it is a common sight to .see huge monarch grubs sunning I hemselves in the middle of the road, while quite a number are into the cacoon stage. Judging from the number of lavac in evidence, there should be even more butterflies this year than previously.
Blackberry Season Advanced Investigations show that the blackberry season at the lakes th.s year has promise of being a good one. From present appearances, the best part for fruit will be around Lake. Rotoiti, but some of the other lakes also show promise. The berries are as yet green, but if the next foitnigut is as good as the last, there khou d be any amount of ripe fiUit ready.
