Two of my favorite milkweed patches have been destroyed. One on the beach by view-hungry citizens. Hopefully that milkweed will grow back as well as the other vegetation that was cut down. The second has been plowed over to make a bike park. I just discovered that tonight and was very upset. There were at least 50 plants growing there and now they are totally gone. Sad...but I did find 2 eggs elsewhere and I'm taking them to school. Hopefully they will be ready to pupate just before we break for our summer holidays.

Editor's Note: The presence of eggs means an adult monarch has arrived in this area. Therefore, we are adding this egg report to the migration map.
