On the 22nd there was 1 monarch enjoying the ageratum purple clusters all day.
On the 23rd there were 3 monarchs throughout the day.( I have rarely seen any monarchs for the past few years. )
It rained that evening and there were heavy winds but it was still pretty warm.
On the 24th in the morn is was cooler due to the front and there was 1 butterfly near the flower garden but not seen in it. Maybe the sweet nectar was not readily available as the past days at their peak due to the pounding rain. I hope the other 2 friends found shelter and everyone is seeking warmer weather.
