Washington DC had continuous rain for 5 days, yesterday was sunny, monarchs arrived and nectared on the front garden buddleia all day, there were always 10-15 monarchs nectaring. Also present were a great spangled fritillary, red admiral, painted lady, cabbage, sulphur, local small skippers, silver-sided skipper. Best monarch day ever <25 years>. Assumption is that these monarchs were holed up at Cape May in New Jersey and came across in abundance and some found my yard in downtown DC.
At least 50 must have nectared... maybe lots more...
all good...
