Traveled south from Osceola to Hudson and back again today (about 60 miles round trip). Saw approx. 30 monarchs flying, most of them actually flying west. Wind was mild from the south.
Monarchs were flying about 10 feet high, in general. I have found it more the rule than not that when there is not a tail wind and the monarchs are flying "directionally", their movements are westerly. Temperatures are hot and humid throughout northwest Wisconsin and much of Minnesota. The chrysalides already formed should be yielding their monarchs by the end of the week or soon thereafter.
