EventMonarch Migration Sighting
Date of Sighting10/18/02
CommentsOur school's butterfly garden was full of monarchs today. We counted 25-30 on one 'butterfly bush.' We have been watching for them since school started. Some of us have seen a few, but Friday was a real treat! We noticed that the butterflies stayed on one bush that was in the sun and they did not go to a nearby bush that was in the shade. As the sun shifted, the butterflies went to the 2nd bush.
