Sara Piazza > The pathway to Moshup Beach. The two little white dots in this image were the first clue that I was in for a bit of rain, only a bit, as it would turn out.
Sara Piazza > August 2007. Last evening, after photographing a family in Aquinnah, while sitting and catching my breath after having spent the previous hour chasing three adorable little boys - a six year-old and four-year-old twins - all over the beach with my camera, I noticed a couple of monarchs flitting about near a shrub oak. As I observed for a few minutes, I realized there were many monarchs, seemingly focused on one area of the tree. When I went to inspect the situation, I found what appeared to be a community resting place - this little north shore Island oak perhaps being an overnight stop on the monarchs' long-distance migratory flight?

PS - I found interesting monarch migration info, here: http://www.learner.org/jnorth/tm/monarch/AboutFall.html
