Hi Friends at Journey North,
We saw our first Monarch this afternoon....4 miles north of Bailey's Harbor, Door Co. WI. It was a tattered female in search of Milkweeds. Unfortunately the Milkweeds are slow at coming up this year. She will have to do a lot of searching, but there are a few that are about 6 in. high. There has been a lot of predation of the plants by the Swamp Milkweed Beetle. An hour later, I found two Monarch eggs on some small Milkweed plants.
