monarchs littered the sky surrounding the queensboro plaza area and dwindled by 39th avenue.
Editor's note: contacted observer for more details on this sighting
I would say i was watching in one location- on queensboro plaza north and 28th street for 30 minutes.
They seemed to be coming down from 28th street and moving south west (i believe). swirling above the queenboro plaza train station.
some were 5 feet off the ground traveling through the street, some were like a waterfall swooping down from rooftops, stopping in trees, and others were spiraling what seemed a few hundred feet above the train station.
I spent another 15 minutes slowly walking away from them, up 28th street, trying to locate where they were coming from, but they had stopped coming by the time i reached about 39th avenue.
