My after school science club tonight (May 16) was doing a biodiversity assessment of our school grounds, and we spotted our first Monarch butterfly! He was flying north and moving right along, but it appeared that his wings were new, not tattered and torn. Swamp milkweed plants at my house are up about 3" but I'm not seeing other milkweed plants yet.
