This is the first day that I saw a surge in Monarchs. Before today I had only 3-4 a day. Note that the picture does have Queens and monarchs and I tagged 10 today but there were many more that I did not tag.
I saw them all on my greg's mist flowers and the vitex tree at the same time as they were hanging around and feeding. This picture doesn't do justice but you can see at least 10-15 in it. I do realize that there are some queens mixed in. I saw as many today (10/11) as well so it appears to be peak time here.
