Strange to see so many monarchs in the northern latitudes this late. But in Minneapolis, September felt more like an August (temp-wise) so I compared my captive-reared releases from September 2015 with September 2016:

Released in September:
2015 9
2016 49

Was it the Mexico snow storm that slowed their return or the prolonged warm summer/fall season we're experiencing this year or both?
