7 of the 30 or so seen the day prior. 2 monarchs were in exact same spot as day before including the tagged female ACWC715 first seen 10/21.

A cluster of 2 seen at very top (50'?) east side of their favorite Hackberry Tree. A touch more calm on the east side.
All the rest were individually settled in sheltered areas on grapevine, bare branch or other smaller Hackberry trees.
Did see one monarch fly low east out over lake about 25', gained altitude, turned around & returned to shoreline tree settling high at about 30'.

These monarchs have a 2-3hr window tomorrow morning to warm at sunrise & leave on a light northerly wind.

Observations by eye, binoculars & camera.
