I noticed several butterflies roosting in a flowering bush in our yard last night just before sunset. Today there are many butterflies on the same bush. They have been gathering nectar throughout the day.

For the previous 3 days and nights, we have seen many Monarchs (and a few Queens) sipping nectar and roosting on this bush . A cold front came through last night (10/22) and today, I have only see a few Queen butterflies on the bush. Evidently, the Monarchs have moved on.

Editor's Note: This observer did not specify the number of monarchs present. We entered 'one' in the number field only to mark this record for future consideration.
