Number: 1000

A neighbor contacted me to say he had at least 1000 monarchs on his property. I went over to see and yes, that was a good estimate. He stated they had shown up on Monday, September 9th, and kept building as the week progressed.

It was a perfect location to provide excellent protection: a nice-sized pond, completely surrounded by pines, tall arborvitaes, and maples. He stated that he usually has some every fall, but this was one of the largest occurrences of them.

Weather was 88°/68°, mostly cloudy, with a light rain starting around 7:30 PM, just as they were settling in. Winds were out of the east/southeast at about 5 mph.
