I saw these two mating around 1pm in my yard. I have had monarch caterpillars of various instars in my yard for most of November. Today I counted four different cocoons. One butterfly emerged from a cocoon today. I have three species of Asclepias, two species of Gomphocarpus, and one species of Calotropis in my yard that serve as host plants.

I'm submitting my data to SW Monarchs as well. I have more photos and videos as well.
