Went down to our creek at 6:15 pm to see if any monarchs were preparing to roost for the night. Counted 8 either flying around or landed in roosting positions in trees. Lots of dragonflies around as well so they were nervous. Then I noticed a some monarchs swirling up from the creek bed and realized there were more there puddling in the almost dry creek mud. I counted 14 puddling. Seemed to be mostly males from what I could see. Weather conditions in photo. Noticeable higher wind than earlier today but still blowing from south east.
