Monarch Butterfly Walks Flying thousands of miles at speeds of up to 25 miles per hour and a mile high in the sky, Monarch butterflies return annually to the same trees at the San Leandro Marina and hunker down to spend the winter. For more than a decade, the City of San Leandro has sponsored the Monarch Butterfly Program to share this exceptional example of our natural environment with the community. Learn about the life cycle and mysterious migrations of the Monarch butterfly from an expert. After a brief talk take a short walk to see large clusters of butterflies on the Eucalyptus trees. This is one of the few places in Alameda County to witness this natural phenomenon! Wear comfortable shoes that can get a bit dirty. We’ll walk two blocks to the site on paved surfaces, then on grass to view the butterflies. Bring binoculars or borrow some of ours! The overwintering site is NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Participants must visit the site with the naturalist. Weekday group tours available on a limited basis by contacting sanleandrobutterﬂies@earthlink.net.

Team members work to achieve Good Manners goals. The first level goals include Sit, Down, Come when called, and walking nicely on a leash.
