Pulse Appears in Texas
Gregg Lee was seeing only a few monarchs per day on 10 acres of blooming Liatris, a favorite monarch flower. Things changed on Monday:

"Monarchs were on every patch I checked, in some areas with one every 5 or 10 feet. Total of 500 is a safe estimate based on flower area and density of Monarchs. It is possibly low. For example 10 acres of flowers with a monarch every 20 feet calculates to 1,400 total." 10/8/12 Chalk Mountain, Texas
