We have seen NO Monarchs on our project this calendar year despite seeing them last year and planting pollinator gardens to attract them. We have a team of employees at our site that have been on the watch for them since early spring. We FINALLY spotted several heading south. We are located in the Appalachians in the Cherokee National Forest and are excited to see them passing through. This image shows them near some of our Kudzu affected by our targeted herbicide efforts to control this and other invasive species. Another image shows adults monarchs taking a nectar break on local wildflowers.
