Hot, breezy, sunny, 91 degrees. Great day…several days of hot, humid weather seemed to have helped numbers now. Highlights included a Cloudless Sulphur (finally stationary enough for a quick photo) laying eggs on a Senna plant, a Black Swallowtail laying eggs on Wild Carrot, and a mating Monarch pair. Great to see a large number of Monarchs!
