A friend of mine in Ithaca NY counted 48 road-killed Red Admirals on a
3-mile bike ride the day before yesterday.

Subject: [NatureNS] Keep your eyes peeled for Red Admirals
A mass migration of historic proportions has arrived in Ontario and Quebec
in the last couple of days. The migration consists primarily of Red
Admirals, and numbers of more than 100 per minute have been documented
moving through some sites. This mass of butterflies will likely reach the
Maritimes today (perhaps they are already in western NB). If they don't
arrive today they will be here with the next warm weather system.
If you observe movements you are encouraged to submit your observations to
eButterfly (ebutterfly.ca). Of particular interest is the time of your
initial observation. eButterfly is trying to accurately document the leading
edge of this migration. Also of interest is an estimate of the number of
individuals moving through an area per hour, as well as the direction of the
movement.
As always, please also try to get a photo or specimen so observations can be
included in the Maritimes Butterfly Atlas dataset.
Cheers,
