There were about 150 monarchs roosting in the pines and maples. Their behavior was different than in previous evenings. Before, they were scattered loosely about in small groups as the light faded. This evening they began actively gathering about 5:00, well before it got dark. They were clustered very closely together and each time another monarch came flying by, they flashed their wings open as if to welcome them into the group. The wind is light, but has shifted over to the north/northeast for a while. Showers and cooler weather are in the forecast for Friday.
