Late this afternoon a monarch flew from the SSW out across the open pasture and finally picked a mesquite just north of the cabin to land in and spend the night. It wasn't new, but not close enough to tell sex. We will all be out for a few more days to see if any others follow and if we can get any to pose for a photo. This would put this one about 640 miles north of the sanctuaries ... 65 miles ESE of San Antonio. A light north breeze today and in mid-70's. Upper 70's and SE breeze rest of the week ... send rain, sixteen inches of rain behind since first of October ... hope we have milkweed and nectar sources!
