Monarch Adult Sighted

While pruning pomegranates at the UNR Research Orchard in North Las Vegas, I spotted our resident Monarch floating among the other blossoming trees. I slowly crept closer as it fed on an Aprium, but as I moved to take a photo, it floated on towards the peaches, where it blended in to feed and float some more.
This was right at Noon, the same time we've seen it exhibit this behavior before. The temperature was 63, sunny,
with virtually no breeze. 20 minutes later it was spotted near the pluots, still enjoying the sweet blossoms of the front grove.
