Because of our longer than usual 2018-19 Summer, it's been wonderful to be seeing so many Monarchs flying about in Autumn.
Here's a small cluster of 5, that I saw in Nelson late in May. Aren't they lovely among the Autumn colours?

Rather they form into small and large clusters and hang about in tall trees, in the areas they were raised into.
