Monarchs are still passing through here. I saw 12 this morning and went back outside to see if I could see one more to beat yesterday’s number. One more turned into many more they just kept coming sometimes in pairs. There is a tree line to the east of me they would be spotted about tree top level then would drop down over my yard and continue west southwest. A few found some flowers in my yard and would fuel up and fly off. A few times I was watching the sky and one would fly past my face.
Quite an astonishing thing to see.
I wish I could have remained out all day to capture as many as possible. The weather is to turn cool over the next few days I wonder how many more are yet to pass this way.
