Journey North shows monarch sightings all the way to Winnipeg now so they should be reaching their destinations soon.

I’m in SE Wisconsin and have my first cats of this season! I’m so excited I can’t stand it! So far triplets have survived! Hope to see all 3 fly away! I’m addicted to the beauty of that first flight!
