While walking in the woods, I continued to see monarch butterflies flying in front of me. I probably saw around 30 butterflies in a 10 minute span.
Editor's note: The Gulf fritillary, a monarch look-a-like, is one of several migratory species in the Southeast. As fall approaches, adults begin a mass southward migration eventually arriving in South Florida to overwinter.
