Following the cold front that passed through on the 11th, there were many monarchs on the move on the 12th taking advantage of favorable migrating conditions. The winds shifted to the south on the 13th and now every field of Liatris has hundreds of monarchs fueling up for the next segment of their journey. We've tagged over 700 on Fort Hood since the 12th and we only tagged in one or two spots that weren't very far apart. 3000 is a conservative estimate of how many were present between the 12th-14th.
