If you are able to, go outside right now with your binocs and scan the sky . . . if other places at 
least in north-central KY are like our farm, there are *hundreds* of Monarchs going over. I saw 
three "birds" in a flock a few minutes ago and realized they were Monarchs. Then I 
started scanning overhead and there are one's and twos and threes not visible to my naked eye but 
visible in binocs! Others "thermaling up" like raptors getting higher into the sky.
We have the slightest northeast breeze at Louisville this morning and instead of being down low they are all up high . . . and soo many!
