We counted 118 monarchs at Rick Evans Grandview Prairie near Columbus, AR in the 2 hours we were there between 10 am and 12 noon. Most were flying in a south to southwest direction about 20 - 30 feet off the ground. We were able to capture and tag 26 that were feeding on iron weed along the main road through the prairie. The monarchs were all large and healthy looking and seemed in a hurry to feed and be on their way. A cold front with rain is predicted to move through our area from Friday into early Saturday.
