I just returned from a trip to the Hudson Bay Lowland and as it happens, I did see one monarch butterfly. The observation was at the Attawapiskat airport on Monday August 1 at 9:00 a.m.

Attawapiskat, Ontario, is a Cree village on the Attawapiskat River about 10 km upriver from its mouth on the west coast of James Bay.

The observation location is the airport there, at 55.93 North, -82.43 West.

The butterfly was flying with a good tail wind across the gravel aircraft parking/refuelling area.
