Another great day. Sunny in the high 70s light wind from the NW. I saw more then 40 Monarchs on the way to the lighthouse so I knew it was going to be good.they were all over the path to the lighthouse where I normally go. But I also went toward the west end of the Island and again they were everywhere along the dunes. Often more than one on a goldenrod plant. In one case I counted about 15 on a large bush of Goldenrod.
Just before Sunset I went back to the lighthouse path and saw many starting to roost in the pine trees. I saw more then twenty doing this but not all in one tree. By then my camera battery had died so I didn't get a picture.
