The leading edge of the Monarch migration arrived in mid-Missouri on October 2. I believe the numbers will continue to build over the next few days, however. We had many Monarchs on our community Butterfly Bushes (Buddleia), and we had other Monarchs flying and dashing everywhere. The Monarchs are funny...They don't like another one near them while they are nectaring. So I just did my best to get a "group" photo. I had to settle for a pic of three of them.
