I'm not from here so forgive me if this is a normal occurrence, but holy crap I was dodging them all day! On the way home (1604 by Sea World) I was wiping them off my windshield. Tiny little brownish orange ones, just swooping at my vehicle, and they were all flying in the exact same direction What the heck? Made it back to Stone Oak and there's not too many out here, but a couple have fluttered by my window in the last few minutes. Never seen this many before, kinda cool haha.

Monarch butterfly migration south. This year so far seems....I don't know..."light" I guess compared to previous years I have lived here. Maybe it's still a little early?

Snout-nosed butterflies. Dubbed "snot-nosed butterflies" by my dad. They're everywhere during their migration. 'Tis the season!

I saw them for the first time yesterday. I actually had forgotten about their yearly migration to this area. I think it's neat!

Yep, snouts. If you want a close-up look at the little buggers, I have about 50 of them on the grill of my Jeep!
