Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)

Date: 05/31/2005

Number: 1

Towards evening on Memorial Day we were heading home from a family picnic southwest of Lourdes College near Whitehouse, Ohio. Remembered a field that had both clover in bloom and ample stands of Common Milkweed. After checking a large number of the plants for eggs and finding none, decided to look in just one more area of the field before leaving as it was getting dark. Found one egg that appeared to be freshly deposited and another that had been damaged. We will check out the three types of milkweed in our Prairie and Wildlife Gardens on Campus and report back since we heard today that a few Monarchs have been spotted in the area.
