I was told that Monarch butterflies were beginning to migrate into Headlands Dunes State Nature Preserve in Mentor, OH. We were not able to get there until about 5:30 PM. We were able to catch and tag 4 Monarchs for MonarchWatch that were nectaring on goldenrod. We saw one or two butterflies at a time fluttering above our heads or landing in trees. We saw approximately 30 total butterflies within an hour but no clumps of butterflies hanging from the trees.
