Dear Journey North Readers,
15 March - 21 March 2022
Dear fellow flock of birders,
This past week birders have been seeing some new migrant arrivals in Dane County but not necessarily in the Arboretum. Eventually they will appear in the Arb too.

Dear Western Monarch Friends,
Monarch sightings are on the rise this week particularly in Southern California but also more inland in Moreno Valley. A monarch was also reported in Las Vegas, Nevada, and several were seen in Arizona. As the migration continues, keep an eye out for worn-winged and aged overwintering monarchs expanding their range your way. Is your milkweed up and hearty nectar ready?

Dear fellow flock of birders,
We’ve now moved into Daylight Saving Time. It does not help us in the morning. Sunrise tomorrow is at 7:09 am. It does not make sense to change our start time to 7:00 am yet. Let’s wait a few weeks so that the sun will be up when we arrive at 7:00.

After a season with many changes and a very busy month of February, in the first week of March we could see a decrease in both, the colony of butterflies in Cerro Pelón, and in the guests of JM Butterfly B&B.

Dear friends,
In mid-March temperatures at monarch butterfly sanctuaries can reach 26 Celsius. In these high elevation mountains, the monarchs have hibernated in the Oyamel fir trees – but now they are on the move.
