Along the Monarch Migration Highway
In November, Journey North observers noted the ongoing southward migration of monarchs along the central and eastern flyways. While some stragglers, reaching as far north as Michigan, still have a considerable distance to cover, monarchs in Tennessee have a shorter journey before reaching Mexico. However, concerns arise as cold temperatures are anticipated across the Eastern U.S. this weekend.
Last Weeks of November
As another fall migration season draws to a close, a heartfelt thank you for dedicating time to submit your monarch and milkweed observational reports. Monarchs are still making their way to overwintering locations in Mexico and along the California coast. This issue, Texas observers still reporting roosts. While awaiting the opening of the Sanctuaries, Estela Romero describes geothermal wells in the area. Gail Morris reports monarchs settling at California groves.
