<div dir="ltr">Growing up I was well aware of Monarch's famous and fabulous migrations. But I lived in Norrh Florida on a small lake in college. I was initially shocked that many migrating species (not just monarchs) were traveling south over the lake where there was excellent visibility. Monarch's get all the credit though. But likely because the longest and the most spectacular congregations are in their wintering quarters.<div>Bob OBrien Portlan</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Nov 23, 2025 at 1:34 PM Carol Riddell via Tweeters <<a href="mailto:tweeters@u.washington.edu">tweeters@u.washington.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Robert Michael Pyle, a Washington resident and renowned lepidopterist, published a great read in 1999 about the migration of Monarch populations in the Western States. It ultimately came out in paperback and is also available as an eBook. It is one of the better travel/nature books I have enjoyed.
