WOW! I went outside late this afternoon to check and see if I might see a Monarch on the butterfly bush since it has been several days since I had seen one out there and there were seven of them!!! I think the migration is picking up in our area, but will wait a couple of more days, especially as the cold fronts pass through, to see what kind of activity there is. I continue to see a random one or two in the Adairsville area, either overhead or on a roadside butterfly weed.

Again, I got some fabulous pictures and am just having a wonderful time.

One thing of some interest - - - I have been seeing ONLY males, and of the seven on the bush at the same time today, SIX were females. I wish I knew more about what this might mean!!!
