EventMonarch PEAK Migration
Date of Sighting10/15/00
CommentsThis surely is the Peak Migration for Northeast Texas. I counted 50 Butterflies all nectaring on (Verbesina virginica) or Frostweed. We are expecting rain and cooler tempertatures so I guess they will travel south. This has been the strangest migration that I have noted. They come, disappear and then come back again. I am sure our strange weather has a lot to do with this.
