This past Friday though Monday, the weather has been cold (36F. for low; 57F. for high) with windy and rainy conditions. Winds were NNW-25 mph at times. Today, I finally counted 5 monarchs. Here is the hourly count:
1:00 to 2:25 PM - 2 - at the beach at Harrisville State Park along Lake Huron migrating south.
2:35 PM - 2 - at the end of 2nd Street nectaring on goldenrod flowers.
2:50 PM - 1 - 4th and Jackson Streets nectaring on goldenrod flowers.
Weather was partly sunny with the Wind WSW-12. The Temperature was 60 F. at start of count, and 67F. at end of count (high for the day). My friend (Larry) has not seen any monarchs around Harrisville the last 5 days.
