EventMonarch PEAK Migration
Date of Sighting08/20/00
CommentsIt was totally awesome. It was about 4:30pm on August 20, 2000 and my family and I were looking at our garden. We happened to notice all of the butterflies hovering around 2 of our trees in the backyard. We then decided to take some pictures of them. We are hoping they will turn out. We have never seen anything like this before. Late yesterday afternoon (08/20/00) I checked on the monarchs and sure enough they were still around. However, there were probably only about 15 to 20 of them.
