The Beautiful Monarch

Posted by Rocky Point Times | Jun 4, 2015 | Rosarie Salerno |

The Monarch Butterfly is easily recognized by their bright orange wings with black and white markings; resembling a stained glass window. When resting or feeding, the underside of the wings are visible displaying a drabber orange color. The males have a black spot on each of their hind wings; scent glands used to attract the female Monarch for mating. They use their antennas to smell flowers and a tube, called a proboscis, to suck water, and nectar from flowers. The Monarch’s wing span is about 3 1/2 to 4 inches. Monarch Caterpillars can be identified by their many yellow, black and white bands around their bodies.

I mentioned that I was running out of stories to tell and was trying to come up with something interesting and a little humorous to make up an article. I could think of little to say and decided I would hodge-podge something before Alicia of Rocky Point Times emailed me saying I was running out of time to get my article in. Anyone can submit an article that is in good fashion to be included in this paper. It has to be in before the 10th of the month to be in the next months issue.

There are many people who have been to Rocky Point many times and many that never go and ask the same question: Is it safe? We have read many articles on how safe it is and warnings from the department of state come and go about travel to Mexico in general and Rocky Point in particular.

Been out to the Oyster Farm?

I hate ’em. Oysters. Put ’em on a cracker, put hot sauce on ’em, it won’t help. Have you looked at them? Like something out of Steven King. Some people love them. They tell me Oysters are high in zinc, protein, omega 3…oh, and they’re an aphrodisiac. To who, I wonder, other Oysters?
