Monarch PEAK Migration

Date: 09/19/2016

Number: 50

I had gone with my son up to Algoma, Wisconsin on this day. We left Algoma at approximately 2:35pm. From Algoma to approximately 3 mile south of Algoma, just before turning away from Lake Michigan, I sighted 46 Monarchs over a course of 20 minutes. All were in a southerly flight pattern and many were in groups of 4 to 8 butterflies. We did have a five minutes stop in that same time frame and during those five minutes I sighted 6 monarchs flutter past. After turning away from the lake on highway 42, I did not see any more monarchs until reaching Kewaunee, WI at approximately 3:10pm. At which time I sighted 3 monarchs in a southerly flight along the lakeshore in Kewaunee. I Sighted 1 more monarch just outside of Mishicot as we entered the village limits. Total sighted for this date was 50 monarchs all on a southerly flight path.
