May 10, 2005 Dear Students and Teachers, Greetings from your friends at Journey North! It has been an unusual 2 weeks with only a few sightings of first monarchs. Why do you think adult monarchs haven’t been seen this time of year? What do the monarchs need from their environment as they grow and change from an egg, a larva, a chrysalis, or an adult. Think about this question as you put today’s sightings on your map.
