I heard a bird in a tree and looked up and there they were. Hundreds of them flying at different distances up throughout the sky. They were flying from East to Southwest towards Claremore then Tulsa, OK. So happy to see them.

When I first looked up it was around 12:15 PM. I watched consistently for about 10 to 15 minutes then off and on for the rest of the day. It was a cloudy day and had been raining off an on for short periods of time. I think that’s why I was able to see so many. It was in the upper 70’s to 80's, light wind. I saw maybe 20 to 30 all at one time then they just kept coming maybe 15 to 10 then 5 at a time. It was just wonderful. I couldn’t take a picture because they were too far up and I only had my cell phone. Through out the day there would be one or two in my yard getting nectar from the flowers I have left, cosmos, zinnia, and a red sage.

I saw at least a hundred over an hour.
