Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)

Date: 06/01/2006

Number: 1

None of the normal Common Milkweeds are up on our property...yet. I did see several Swamp Milkweeds that are about 1 in. high. BUT, there are five Common Milkweeds growing along our gravel road. I put a red flag by each one and marked how many eggs were on each plant. The total is 71. This shows how few milkweeds are around this area, because that is way more eggs than they normally lay on a plant. The height of the 5 plants average about 6 in. Just thought you'd like to know. I have been watching for eggs like a hawk, so this is the first time I could actually have something to report.
