Counted 21 in one cluster in cedar trees. There were several more floating in and around the other trees in the shelter belt. Very windy - 15-20 mph south wind.
I first saw the roost at about 11:30 a.m. and again at 5-5:30 p.m. on Sept. 11. I didn't have time to check yesterday but will try and go out later today. It is cold and misty today, high of 64 degrees.
Nectar source right around the trees of annual sunflower and goldenrod that they were nectaring on heavily. wind was from the southwest at 15-20 mph. Very strong wind. The trees definitely provided shelter from the wind. Overnight temp. of around 65 degrees.
