Most monarch butterflies have left Minnesota already, headed on their annual migration to Mexico, but the Science Museum of Minnesota's new Butterfly House exhibit lets you get up close and personal with them.
It's running in conjunction with "Flight of the Butterflies," a documentary about a scientist's 40 years of expeditions to find where monarch butterflies in southern Canada and the United States travel for winter. The exhibit and film run through January 8.
