5 monarchs in my yard in one 15 minute period today, mostly nectaring on Asclepias curassavica and Verbesina encelioides. For the last 10 days, typically have 3 to 5 monarchs in yard at any given time during best flight times. In contrast, last year in late September, I had 20 to 70 monarchs in my yard during any 5 minute period of the heat of the day. Same flower supply each year.
