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.
