Fall Migration

[Pixie]

I am wondering if the peak migration for my latitude was earlier than normal this year. I haven't seen any monarchs since the end of August & the normal peak in St. Louis is generally mid-September. I did tag & release the last of my reared monarchs on September 12. On my small scale project, I tagged 3 caught/wild monarchs and 23 reared inhouse.

The only way that I know to get an accurate picture of the migration is by looking on the "maps" and "sightings" at Journey North.
