Today after an all morning rain that lasted until 2 PM, I observed 41 monarchs heading south down the Lake Huron shoreline at Harrisville State Park between 3 and 6 PM. Weather rain and then sunny when I started count with the temperature at 78F., and wind W-8 mph. If this holds up for the rest of the month, this peak would be the 2nd lowest since 2012 when I had a peak of 20 in 4 hours.

October 6: My peak for September was 41 monarchs on September 17th, 2016. This was the lowest after my 2012 count of 20 on September 7. We had a lot of easterly winds for 2016 and southerly winds and a drought in 2012
