Estimated 20 monarchs leaving roosting in a 100 feet of mixed hardwoods in a fence row, singly or in groups of a few between about 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. CDT. They flew low over a field of clover and foxtail with a few black-eyed susans across a gravel road and to the west of the roosting site. Some returned to the trees, possibly more than once. This is same site as in 9/24, 9/25 reports. Did not see them clustered as before, but were not as many. Cloudy, Wind calm. They seemed disturbed by a passing car, a bird over the treetops, sometimes my walking.
