I recently had a monarch butterfly visit my flowers. He or she must have been very hungry since I could come very close without the monarch flying away. Monarchs pass through Williamsburg every fall on their seasonal migration.

What happens to monarchs in a hurricane? Do they get carried along by the wind like a run-away kite? Or are they able to hide somewhere to weather the storm? I had visions of this poor hungry butterfly flying all the way to Virginia and then being blown back to Pennsylvania.
