What am I?By Cristani

I am an insect.

3oo million of us migrate to Mexico each fall.

I start out as an egg.

I feed on milkweed flowers.

I have four wings that I use to fly.

When it is winter I migrate to Mexico, to get away from the cold.

I have two antennae.

No animal can eat me because I will make them sick.

I have six hairy, spikey legs.

I have a long tongue that I use to collect nectar from the milkweed flowers.

My colors are white, black, orange, yellow, tan, and brown.

I make no sound.

My habitat is in open fields and meadows with milkweed flowers.

I eat milkweed flowers.

I have a poisonous substance in me so when animals eat me I will make them sick.

I live up to six to eight years.

I am pretty and beautiful.

I have a thorax and a proboscis.

What am I?

I am an Monarch Butterfly!
