Beau’s Butterfly Garden
Welcome to the personal website of Thelma Beaubien.
Thelma’s three passions: photography, gardening and nature was the journey of converting her yard to a butterfly garden. Her garden is now registered as a Monarch Waystation, Monarch Watch, University of Kansas.
An article was written about Thelma's butterfly garden on August 5, 2011 in the Kitchener-Waterloo Record. Click here to read the article!
Images of species recorded to date can now be seen on flickr at:

The flickr account includes images sorted by sections on the Butterflies, Moths and Garden Visitors. These images were taken during the first two years of the garden as a record of activity. Watch for an additional section on the flowers that have provided the most success for attracting the different species.
As well, Thelma provides the host plant for the Monarch caterpillar. For information on this activity please go to the link on this website:
