With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard outside a furniture shop.

Ten minutes later I was 20 poorer; and the cupboard was tied on the roof rack. It was six feet long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too. In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea. After a time my wife said, “Theres a long line of cars behind. Why dont they overtake, I wonder?” In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me. “Right, sir, ” he said. “Do you need any more help?” I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer, ” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.” He was staring at our car, first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well, ” he said, laughing. “Its a cupboard youve got there! We thought it was something else.” My wife began to laugh. The truth hit me like a stone between the eyes.

Each autumn in the pine forests of central Mexico, one of the greatest natural phenomena appears, as tens of millions of beautiful orange Monarch butterflies pour into the trees to spend the winter months. Some of them have migrated several thousand kilometres from their breeding (繁殖) grounds in North America and Canada, but although theyve never been here before, they travel south and find their way to an area not much bigger than the English county of Devon. Although they coat the trees and when they take flight, look like an orange snowstorm, these butterflies are under threat at both ends of their journey.The pine forest are being cut down illegally by gangs of loggers, despite protection from the Mexican government. Local people need timber（原木）and firewood to survive. Where the butterflies breed in North America, their foodplant, the milkweed, is being killed by herbicides and agricultural practices, and the Monarchs migration is in danger.With location reports from the Mexican forests, Brett Westwood explores how steps are being taken to develop sustainable forestry to help preserve this magnificent insect.60.
