Dear Western Monarch Friends,
Monarchs are slowly entering Utah with a second sighting reported this week as sightings continue to grow in the California coastal regions extending a short distance into the neighboring deserts. All adult sightings with photos show fresh and new monarchs, a harbinger of a new generation.
Waiting for Adults
Where is the leading edge of migration this week? Reports of adult monarchs have slowed, but this is not unexpected as many monarchs are in the larval stage right now. Watch for a surge in activity during the second half of May and report your observations to Journey North.
