Monarchs, looooong Tip at Point Pelee National Park, fabulous sunset, full Harvest moon...& Monarchs....conservatively about 300 in 2 different locations. Monarchs settled in late, 6:35 pm with sunset at 7:05. Up until then I thought there was a couple dozen flitting above the treetops ...then suddenly, there they were establising their roosts for the night & making it difficult to have time to look for additional roosts.
Partly cloudy day started out with a North wind for a short time this morning & then moderate SW wind thereafter. High of 23°c. 21°c when leaving the park around 7:30 pm. Very happy to have another evening with the monarchs :)
