Monarchs on the decline…

I saw my first Cloudless Sulphurs (3) yesterday while counting at the Snicker’s Gap Hawk Watch in Loudoun County, VA.

I’ve also seen a number of Monarchs there during the last few weeks but the numbers are down compared to the last few seasons. Patricia Sutton has an article that I think you’ll find an interesting read on the subject.

One Response to Monarchs on the decline…

  1. I began tagging monarchs last year. I only tagged 3 last year and this year I haven’t tagged a single one. I will be moving soon and have planted milkweed here and plan to plant more at the new house. I am sorry to find that monarchs are missing from other gardens as well.
