I saw a new monarch flying by away from my blackberry bushes which are flowering right now.It was a partially sunny day that became sunnier in the afternoon. Temperature in the seventies.Slight breeze, with some humidity-air is probably from the gulf.It was about 12:30pm when I saw it.Also have been seeing everyday since 05/05/10 Red Admirals, sometimes as many as 3 to 5 around my yard (I have planted a butterfly/bee/bird flower garden around my house).
