Started checking periodically at noon when the temperature was 78 with a 9 mph WNW wind. There were no monarchs sighted until 3:45 - 4:00 when 1 was seen nectaring on Symphyotrichum novae-angliae. At that time the temperature was 85 with with a 6 mph NW wind. At 5:30 - 5:40, 1 monarch was again sighted on Symphyotrichum novae-angliae. The temperature was 84 with a 5 mph NW wind. I had released a captive reared monarch between the two sightings.
