EventMonarch Migration Sighting
Date of Sighting09/28/02
CommentsI saw about 40 monarchs over the period of an hour. The most I saw together were 5 that were nectaring on seaside goldenrod. I tagged 6, and the rest were battling a strong northwest wind (a cold front had just passed) to fly south west!! This is the most monarchs I've seen all season.
