Published: 03/30/2022

Dear Western Monarch Friends,

The time has finally come for monarchs to leave the California coast and spread their wings to recolonize the West. Sighting reports become scarce as they disperse far and wide, mating and laying eggs as they go. This week’s reports were centered in California as monarchs were seen migrating east from the coast. New shoots of emerging milkweed are also appearing to greet them on their journey.

03/22/2022 Migration Is Gaining Momentum

Spring is here! Estela Romero provides an update on remaining monarchs in Mexico. Texas is a hotspot of monarch activity, and reports are coming as far north as Oklahoma and Arkansas. And Gail Morris highlights monarch sightings in California and the Southwest. Report your first monarch and milkweed observations of the season to Journey North.
