Dear Western Monarch Friends,
Few monarchs remain in coastal overwintering sites as monarchs expand their range and search for milkweed in nearby inland foothills. The Spring Migration is now fully in progress with reports of multiple monarchs in milkweed patches and first sightings of monarch eggs and larvae recorded. Keep an eye out for monarchs!
Spring Migration Is Stirring
March has arrived and the spring migration season is almost here. In Mexico, Estela Romero and Ana Moreno are seeing signs that monarchs will soon be heading north. And in the Western U.S., Gail Morris shares news that monarch numbers are still strong at overwintering sites but upcoming warmer weather could spark more movement.
