Wind out of the east at 9 mph. Temp 78F. 8 of those counted were the half sized monarchs.

[Additional information contributed by observer, added by Journey North, 09/21/21]:

Counts are done by counting individual butterflies as they hang. We spot light them after sunset and they are much easier to find/see/count. The plants we have for them to nectar on are Mexican sunflower, aster, butterfly bush, lantana phlox.
