Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)

Date: 04/11/2004

Number: 1

I walked the big irrigation canal on the Cunningham Ranch this afternoon with Kay, one of the owners. We randomly selected a 100 yard strip of canal bank and in that stretch found 22 A. oenotheroides plants varying in size from 10" to 3" in height and from singles to 5 branches. We checked all plants for chew marks and/or eggs and larvae and found one egg only. All plants were muddied from the 1.5" rain and light hail in the previous 24 hours.
