Taking a 1/2 mile walk to the tip of Tawas Point between 7:30 and 8:00 PM. 65 degrees and light winds. Observed 8 small roosts forming near the tip of the peninsula, with 6 to 12 monarchs at each roost. Other Monarchs continued to fly south westerly towards the tip of the peninsula during our walk, and I am sure were preparing to roost with the others. Those Monarchs observed roosting selected sunny locations and were high in the aspen and jack pine trees and were sunning themselves. No Monarchs were seen flying out over Lake Huron.
