This afternoon while we were outside for our 2nd fire drill of the day, I spotted a monarch flitting across the lawn. After she landed in our garden, Waystation #772 (Washington School, Summit, NJ 40° 43' 34.752"N 74° 22' 18.8724"W), I lost all proper fire drill decorum, calling to the students, "She's laying eggs!!" as I rushed over to the garden. Close inspection revealed 3 eggs on one tiny stalk, and at least 9 more on other sprouts (which I could hardly see) around the garden.
