10 monarch butterflies in trees , in my yard. Many more elsewhere around town.

I saw these late afternoon. But i have been seeing them in the evenings as well. Some areas are shielded from the wind, but not all. The tree in my front yard where i saw the most is not shielded. The overnight temps the last two nights have been in the upper 40s. Usually though, they've been in the 50s and 60s.

We do raise monarchs. I have released around 30 this year. I still have some in chrysalides. But the majority of my releases were in july.
