Early Spring Migration Patterns Emerge Across North America

March 19, 2024 by Nancy Sheehan, Program Coordinator

There is so much to report in this edition. The Eastern population of monarchs is making their way as far north as Virginia and Oklahoma. Also, HMANA & Journey North collaborate to share 7,095 monarch count reports collected by HMANA volunteers at 24 hawk count sites. The Western population of monarchs is on the move in Southern California, with recent sightings reported in Oxnard, Pasadena, Los Angeles, and Glendora. Additionally, an intriguing late-tagged monarch (#CM004) was rescued from a pool in San Diego. Tagged by Denise in Cornville, Arizona, in late fall, CM004's tattered condition suggests it might be a remigrant. Report to Journey North and don't forget to upload a photo!
