We checked the usual spots while at the cottage in Tobermory, Ontario
last week (8/11 - 18) but located no roosts. There are lots of monarchs flying,
though and there was a stiff north wind to help them along the last two
days we were there. My sense is that reproduction in southern Ontario
has been good this summer, but that's based only on local observations.

There was a huge hatch of white admirals last week, we saw hundreds and
hundreds as we biked, hiked and kayaked the Bruce Peninsula. We also
saw viceroys, great-spangled and aphrodite frittilary, buckeye (very
unusual for the area), mourning cloak, Dorcas copper, cabbage white,
common and orange sulphur, Leonard's skipper.
