The Amur falcon (Falco amurensis) is a small raptor of the falcon family. It breeds in south-eastern Siberia and Northern China before migrating in large flocks across India and over the Arabian Sea to winter in Southern Africa. It was earlier treated as a subspecies of the red-footed falcon (Falco vespertinus) and known as the Eastern red-footed falcon. Males are dark grey with reddish brown thighs and undertail coverts; reddish orange eye-ring, cere, and feet. Females are duller above with dark scaly markings on white underparts, an orange eye ring, cere, and legs. Only a pale wash of rufous is visible on their thighs and undertail coverts. Their diet consists mainly of insects such as termites and during migration over the sea, are thought to feed on migrating dragonflies.

is going on right NOW, baby!
At least it is in my neck o' the woods.
Check this page to see if you're on one of the migration routes, and you can use this page to figure out when you might normally expect to see them. (Or, you know, go outside and look around every now and then in the fall.)
The peak migration for my area is supposed to be September 24 - October 6. I've definitely had plenty of monarchs in my yard for the last several weeks, but they weren't noticeably migrating: there was no southwestern flight pattern apparent, just a random circling of the garden, and a lazy flapping from flower to flower. I started thinking that maybe I just wouldn't recognize the migration when it happened. Wrong-o. It's going on right now! I opened the back door Thursday morning (October 8) to let Max out, and checked out the wildlife as usual: instead of the hummingbird and 3 or 4 monarchs that I've grown used to seeing, there was a hummingbird and sixteen (that's SIXTEEN!!!) Monarchs just on the white Buddleia and the milkweed right outside my back door.
I was transfixed.
I was spending the morning trying to complete a Stats project (due at 5 pm that day), and i really didn't have the time for any kind of butterfly-watching, but I couldn't help it. I grabbed my camera and headed outside.
They were everywhere. I stared, open-mouthed, at the buddleia/milkweed combo, covered in butterflies, and then I turned around: they were all over the rest of the yard, too. The pink butterfly bush, the milkweed, the lantana, the chaste tree, the tithonia; all were covered in monarchs. They scattered when i got close, and the photos from more than a couple of feet away don't let you see the butterflies, so i settled for lots of solo shots. None of the sky shots turned out, but there were constantly monarchs fluttering over my head, too, all headed southwest. It was amazing to watch.
I snapped all of these in the course of about 10 minutes.
