Editor's Note: Monarchs have roosted at this location in the past.
We are in contact the observer, and if/when a roost appears this fall it will be reported here.
Comments from the observer:
We have not seen any numbers. We tagged one on Saturday 9/6 (large male) that showed up in our butterfly garden. I watched the garden Sunday and Monday, and saw none. We have not been seeing them on the 40 mile drive to & from work either.
We're going to continue to monitor the Journey North roosting maps (they appear to still be roosting north of us ~175 miles), and will provide updates when we start seeing greater numbers.
