Found my first Monarch egg of the season (Sunday,5/31/09), on the typical second set of milkweed leaves. The plant was about seven inches tall and was just one of several in a cluster of Common Milkweed. The location was about a five-minute drive from the Sylvania Campus of Lourdes College. The egg hatched on Monday, 6/01. The caterpillar is now (6/05)at the late 2nd-Instar size and appears healthy. Expecting a molt to 3rd Instar soon.
