Date of Sighting09/14/00
CommentsThey are here! Cold front came in about 6 am and I have looked every 15 minutes, finally at 11 am I spotted them! Flying by one a time, far above the tree tops. I have seen about 100 monarchs in about 45 minutes. The wind is from the north at about 20 mph and the sky has huge white clouds. The startling orange against the white is beautiful.
