I finally saw my first monarch yesterday (5/26/08) while riding motorcycle through Fillmore County, Minnesota.
When I was mowing the lawn this afternoon, I spotted many common milkweed plants (approx. 3-4 inches tall) finally sprouting all around my yard.
It was quite chilly today (high around 57 degrees) and I had to wear a coat, hat, and gloves while mowing the grass. Hurry up Spring!
