In this video, you can witness one of the most beautiful natural events on Earth! This epic annual migration of the monarch butterflies is gorgeous.
Millions of those colorful insects travel more than 3,000 miles to arrive at the southwest portion of Mexico. Once they reach there, the monarchs blanket the branches of the oyamel fir trees!
The number of butterflies is so big, they end up coloring the trees orange and bend the branches under their weight.
Between November and March every year you can visit the colonies which are only accessible by a strenuous three-hour hike into the remote mountains.
Here are two mind-blowing videos depicting the butterfly migration!
