I received an excited call from an Ontario monarch enthusiast, reporting that monarchs were streaming past the hawk banding blind at the base of Long Point on Lake Erie today. Observer not sure how many had been spotted at that point. (Was later informed during the time the banders were there, approx. 50 monarchs passed this blind area.)


One monarch seen further west of this point today on the shore of Lake Erie in Chatham-Kent.

One monarch reported today at the Detroit River Hawkwatch, Brownstone, U.S.A.

One monarch "amazingly" seen on Nov. 2nd at Holiday Beach Migration Observatory west of Point Pelee National Park.

Also on Nov. 2nd, one monarch photographed way up in Meaford, Ontario on Georgian Bay. Photo taken of a male.

Another U.S.A. report to e-butterfly: two monarchs at Wells, Maine, on the Atlantic Coast.
