Photo Credit: learner.org

From the Atlantic Coast to Texas, it was a big week for migration. After several days of rain in the east, high pressure moved in, the sun came out, and so did the monarchs. The map of peak migration is filled with reports like these:

"We were at recess and counted 65 monarchs fluttering across the playground on their way south." Union Avenue School, Margate, NJ

"Monarchs flew south for migration over the building!" We thought it was a good idea to tell everyone about it." Leeds Avenue School, Pleasantville, NJ
