Recent Monarch sightings
Posted: Thu Jul 11, 2013 11:06 am
A Monarch was reported on the Herts-Middx BC sighting page at Heartwood Forest on 5th July. And another at Rainham Marshes, Essex on 7th and 8th reported on Cambs-Essex BC sightings page, including photos.
Any speculation on whether these are likely to be vagrants or captive-bred?
The write-up on the Herts-Middx page suggests captive, but I don't know what that's based on, and two turning up many miles apart might suggest a natural occurrence?
