Number: 500

I was out at the light house Monday and saw no Monarchs. The wind had been Strong out of the south (on shore). Today with a very light breeze out of the north I saw over 425 between three o'clock and about six. In the next 45 min I estimate at least another 100 but I was too busy looking for roosting Monarchs and taking pictures in the fading light to even trigger my counter. Every time I turned around there were two, three four or more circling around looking for a spot for the night in the pine trees.
Tomorrow the wind is expected to be out of the south so they may not progress much. So I will look for feeding more then migration. Friday the wind should again be favorable and stronger then today.
