I haven't seen a word on here about this but there's a big
Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) migration underway here in
California. My parents in Palm Desert said they've been inundated with them for 2 weeks. A friend who drives in from Placerville had them all over his truck today. More... |

Vanessa cardui, Painted Lady, is on the move in Sacramento up disturbed grassland along the American River at CSUS flying North (downstream). I am guessing that they fly up valleys, across passes and down the other side. More... |

We are having a migration of Vanessa cardui (scientific name should be underlined, but I can't in this program) at this time. They are moving northward through cache valley (Hyrum, UT). According to Dr. Jay Karen
(USU), this is a small migration compared to the one of 1981/1982. More... |

Royce: It has taken me a little while to get back to you. We have been keeping an eye out for Red Admirals. Here is what I know: We have seen them sporadically through the week. Most of the reports have been from Monday, the 7th of May. One here and one
there. More... |

Today I had a single Painted Lady in Ladysmith, Vancouver Island
B.C. It was in a very worn state with chunks missing from both wings. Added to Aud Fisher's finds earlier this week, i think we have a mini invasion. Let the big invasion begin.

Royce: Some weekend observations: Wow! I was out fishing on Jessie Lake in Itasca County in Northern Minnesota (Location approx 47°30' N, and 93°50' W) on Sunday, May 13. I observed about 3-4 Red Admirals/minute between 10:30 am and 12 pm. I'd say 90% were headed N/NE. More... |

I also visited Jones Knob in Macon Co. NC at 4400 + late in the evening the 14th and the only butterflies seen were two V. atalanta (mostly shade and about 65 at 7:30 est.) Most trees there still in bud phase.

The Vanessa atalanta (Red Admiral) northward flight this year reached rather high latitudes: In Canada, William Davies found a single specimen on the sea ice about 4 km off East Bay, Southampton Island (mouth of Hudson Bay), at the odd date of 21 May. Latitude was approx. 64 degrees N.
