Date of Sighting09/12/00
CommentsWow, here they come right on schedule. Knowing that I spotted them last year between the 12th and 14th, yesterday I searched and searched and only spotted one. It was very hot in the 90's. Today, however, amazingly again on Sept. 12th, I spotted 79 within a half hour of driving (approximately 6 miles). Last night a storm brought clear skies and cooler temperatures in the 70's for today.
