Today's westerly wind caused migrating monarchs to funnel along our lake shore campus. I counted 85 in ten minutes. They were nectaring on frost aster and New England Aster. Around noon about a dozen monarchs were clinging to the Norway Spruce just east of the Environmental Science Bldg. I expect a substantial roost early tomorrow morning on the East facing sides of the conifers.
