My sister lives in downtown Montreal. When she phoned this evening she was eager to tell me about all the butterflies she has seen in the last week - more than in the whole summer.  At least thirty or more in the last few days, mostly Painted Ladies, but also a few Monarchs or possibly Viceroys.

Sounds like a widespread phenomenon.  What's the cause?

Hi folks,

I estimated 500 Painted Lad*s (what's the correct plural?) at the Cape Split meadow (end of trail) around noon today. Asters were dripping with them. A few individuals of other species mixed in including 2 Red Admirals.

Saw many today at Peggy's Cove. Did not attempt a count, but there were certainly dozens. One Monarch was also observed.

Very common in the asters at our place on Wyman Road, south of Yarmouth,
<br/> too.
<br/>
<br/> Not sure if there were any Americans in the mix.

<br/> A friend also reported finding many Painted Ladies one day this past week
<br/> along the River Rd in Gaspereau Valley. She said there were almost  'clouds'
<br/> of them everywhere.

<br/> We had six Painted Ladys on one set of daisy-like flowers. Among them was an
<br/> American Lady and later had a Red Admiral on Garlic flowers. At the BNS
<br/> meeting a couple of naturalists reported seeing hundreds of Painted Ladys
<br/> 'like leaves on the ground' .
