Monarch PEAK Migration

Number: 200

200+ Monarchs still feeding at Caney Fork Overlook. Today we tagged 24. The catch and release was easy and didn't seem to bother them as they would return immediately to feeding. It gave some prospective on total number of monarchs present because though 24 of them had been tagged, in observing the activity an hour after tagging was complete, there were many more times (about 1/10) the number of untagged butterflies to tagged butterflies present.
