Between 8:55-9:05 am (10 minutes) 283 monarchs were sighted.
About 8:45am I watched one circle overhead (in about 10-20 foot diamter circle and perhaps 100 feet up) flapping wings, looking so fragile, yet still rising until its was much smaller to my binoculared eyes, then caught its thermal, stretched out wings and headed south. Fascinating.
