Monarchs are migrating! Our daughter just called and said they spotted Monarchs flying along Loop 360! I was trying to remember when we had so many here overnight. They were hanging in the oak trees. I had no clue about why or where Monarchs migrated then.
I search for a thread on the "old" site and found the first post I made. Notice the time of the month when they were here. Shortly after that post, I found them out front in the oaks, just packed on top of each other! I've looked for them every October since then.

Is anyone else seeing migrating Monarchs today? Our backyard must have at least a hundred...and they seem to be stopping for a drink, some nectar, and a little rest. I just noticed them about an hour ago. Could they be moving ahead of the cool, wet weather headed our way?
