I have at least 2 adult Monarch's that are here everyday. most days I have 3. I believe these are the same 3. They don't seem to want to move on. I release the ones that emerge from the chyrsalis' that I have in my enclosure, and after a day or so, those seem to move on. One day last week I had 6 Monarch's hanging out for several days. There's at least 1 male. He's aggressive to mate with the females. Everyday he's mating with one.
Will these Monarch's ever leave, or could they withstand the winter here? We do have low's in the upper 20's occasionally, in Jan & Feb.
