I just got home and DH called me come out back. Our Maple and Cherry trees are full of Monarch Butterflies. They are hanging from the branchs. DH said that a couple of hours age they were fluttering all over the yard. Now it looks as though they've settled in for the night. I've never ever seen this happen here before.

Not a great pic but the best DH could do.

All the yellow or orangey bits that look like dried leaves are butterflies. Could this be part of the migration south?

We've had alot of them in our yard this summer as well but not like this!
