In Eureka Valley on 25 May, many V. cardui were seen on flowers along with an occasional migrant, and occasional ones migrated in the Inyo Mountains. On 26 May at 9000-9200 ft in the White Mountains, the rate was 4-10/5 min/15 m, flying N-NNW. On 28-31 May, migration was extremely sparse in the Owens Valley, but on 2 June near Bishop, it suddenly increased to 8-36/5 min/15 m, flying primarily NNW. The latter flew from the direction of southern Owens Valley. Concurrently, near Barrel Springs (Mazourka Canyon, Inyo Mountains), there were numerous migrants at 5:15 PM under windy, cloudy conditions, many up to 50 ft high. The rate at 5:30 PM was 51-101/5 min/15 m, flying NW-NNW, when very large numbers were also on the many flowers of Dalea and Encelia. When disturbed by car along the.
