Last year I saw many monarchs as well as an over abundance of other butterfly species, saw 15 red admirals on a tree at once, it was unheard of until the warm winter we had 2013 not to mention 2013 had a record high summer we reached 105F out of the sun 3 days, in sun 110F! This past winter was our harshest we had a day of -10 and other below zero that's a record usually its 5-10F. Not one monarch this year and only saw a handful of butterflies.
