Thank you for the shout out Jodi. Indeed, I found the idea of tracking butterfly migration through pollen so fascinating. Glad you liked it!

One of the scientists I interviewed said that it was tracking GPS.

This took quite a bit of back and forth with my wonderful editor, Bob Holmes, who also helped me shape the structure better. Thank you so much Rosie, Eva and the rest of the copy editing and fact checking team at Knowable.

We have all heard of Monarch butterflies’ epic migration from southern Canada to central Mexico.

There are also painted lady butterflies that migrate over several generations from the Middle east, Europe to Africa. But how do you follow them. Now, scientists are using pollen to track them.
