The month of January is over and it seems that the temperature has also increased a bit. During the last week of January it was still cold, and the days were very cloudy. So we didn't see much activity from the butterflies, although it's also obviously special to see the butterflies doing what they're supposed to do: resting.

So what are the birds doing in the Arboretum or around the periphery of the Arboretum?
Situated along the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, the New Jersey (NJ) Audubon Cape May Bird Observatory provides an ideal location for bird and butterfly watching, especially during spring and fall migration. Cape May is a narrow peninsula with Delaware Bay to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The Cape May peninsula forms a bird funnel, directing migrating songbirds, hawks, and monarchs along the coastline during spring and fall migration.

Dear friends,
Despite the travel restrictions across the world, people are still visiting the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve to view the extraordinary phenomenon of overwintering monarchs in Central Mexico.

Monarch season started for us at the end of July when we developed a routine for doing a monarch count at Cape May Point. We found that there were quite a few monarchs present even in late July and early August, although these were probably breeding monarchs, not migrating. At least until the middle or end of August.

Dear Western Monarch Friends,
Monarch reports this week reveal larger numbers of monarchs rather than only singletons of earlier years. Southern California sightings include 50 and even 100 monarchs flying in nearby trees and nectaring on flowers. Warmer temperatures are making monarchs more active as well creating “waterfalls of monarchs” further north in Pacific Grove!

Queridos amigos,
El pico de la temporada atrae miles de visitantes semana tras semana sin importar los fríos y grises días que hemos tenido durante la semana pasada llegando a condiciones de congelamiento en los bosques de hibernación de las mariposas Monarca.
