One Monarch butterfly was fluttering around the backyard. It was not nectaring, although there were many nectar sources available. It did rest for approximately 1 minute in a lilac tree, then continued to flutter around the yard, as well as the neighbor’s yards, before it continued on in a westerly direction. The weather conditions here today were sunny and in the 70’s. A beautiful fall day!(the temperature today is well above average for this time of year for this area, but we are expecting a high of only 47 degrees tomorrow until rebounding into the 50’s over the weekend and some potential 60’s next week). Hopefully this lone Monarch can continue on its journey and join the migration!
