I attempted to report my sighting about 20 minutes ago but am not sure it went through.
I saw them this afternoon about 3p.m. They were circling my garden and driveway looking to feed on the flowering ivy climbing up my trees. Most people don't know that ivy can flower if it climbs up a structure. The flowers are little bouquets of green flowers and very attractive to all sorts of flying insects now, including the Monarch to my great delight. I do not have enough sun to plant milkweed, so I am thrilled to see them. I'm very certain that they were Monarchs and not Viceroys.
