We were out in this area at around 5:00pm. The Monarchs were flying in to roost on the Black Willow trees next to the south side of the Lake and also in the Baccharis neglecta (Poverty weed).
The wind was at about 12 mph from the SSE, but slowed down as the evening progressed. Temperature at 5:00pm was around 85 deg. F, but cooled to about 72 after sunset at around 10:00pm.
The area in which they roost is a slight cove of willow trees that provide a nice wind break.
