Holiday Beach Hawk Watch
Non-raptor Observations:
Today was also all about the insects. In the morning, we counted a few
thousand Monarchs, and again in the last hour of counting, we had another
eruption of Monarch migration over our heads, ending with a daily count of
8,250 Monarch butterflies. Again, in the last few hours, the dragonflies
came out to play, with swarms of darners in the sky. At the end of the day
we had counted 283 Black Saddlebags dragonflies and 2,500 Common Green
Darner Dragonflies.
