Tonight I saw roosting Monarchs on our farm. They were in the prairie remnant with the cottonwood trees where I have seen them in past seasons. I will attach a photo in the morning. There was a number of Monarchs flying about the area and then about 7:30 PM they started to find each other in a couple of trees. One roost of 7 was about 7' above ground, the other numbering 40 or so was about 15' high. The fluttering welcome is something I hope to see each fall and I saw much tonight. A great day on the farm.
