Between 7:30 and 11:30 AM, I counted 81 monarchs rise and take flight above the grove of trees west of the parking lot.
One by one, they rose well above the trees and flying 250 - 270 degrees to the southwest.
I had seen over 300 enter the grove of trees the evening before.
We left by noon so I don’t know if the others remained or continued on their journey south.
