Around 9:00 am, my class counted 6 Monarchs flying past our weather station during our weather observations. We recorded a temperature of 78 degrees at the time.

Later in the afternoon, I recieved a report from my mother in Wynne, AR (about 20 miles south of Harrisburg)that her pecan tree limbs were loaded with hundreds of Monarchs around 11:00 am. The temperature was in the low 80s. At about 5:00 pm, she reported that many had left but she could count about two hundred or so still resting on the tree limbs. Several Monarchs were also flying about the yard.
