I want to tag and don't know when I should start. When Do they start migrating from where I live? (New York)

Well, I had to hold up my last begotten son in a safe container with a tip of a butterfly bush - guess he understood - called him Ernesto - have 8 pupa to go - saw 50 plus cats on milkweed - hope they make it - NW winds w/gray skys really got things going here - saw some Monarchs grabbing the free ride to Mexico already (got my passport the other day - sounds like a plan) I will really miss my new friends - (the cats are much more fun to play with) but the butterflies are so cool - just the way they move about is exciting- I'm glad I could help - thanks to all that added to the Monarch population - 20 new milkweed plants plus two other varieties added to a NEW BF garden - hope they enjoy it next year - fall, winter and early spring = SUCK - for a Monarch addict like me - "Come on May" - it's really kind of sad - but a nice sad _(All BS in my book) thanks everyone for helping our BEAUTIFUL friends--
