The Monarch fall migration is finally here...in the area at least. Sunday we saw some flying along while we were on our way to have brunch in the little town of Pipe Creek. And this one was the only one I saw that joined the Queens who were enjoying a garden near the restaurant.
However, unfortunately I haven't seen any Monarchs or Queens at my own place. I'm also disappointed at the lack of Buckeyes this fall. We have enough of the Agalinis host plants this fall and I haven't even see the butterfly lately, much less any eggs or caterpillars.
