My wife is the Biologist for Amistad National Recreation Area and I am a Ranger at Devils River State Natural Area TPWD. We are doing surveys. My wife captured the big count -- an estimated 23,800 monarchs in a 1.2-hour observation time (8:50 - 10:00 am) as monarchs migrated yesterday (10/13/15) by Amistad National Recreation Area at Hwy 277 North campground. Wind was light and variable from northeast. The monarchs were flying below 50 ft. The counter was Mariana Orejo.
