Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)

Date: 06/01/2010

Number: 1

What a great surprise!!!! North Central WI has been blessed with a perfect Spring this year. Just enough rain, warm days, cool nights, sunny, and NOT jumping right into hot, dry summer weather as previous 5+plus years. AND because of this, the milkweed suddenly shot up and within a 7 day period I began to find Monarch eggs. One per plant. My surprise was finding 30 larvae and I'm going back tomorrow to gather the remainder and raise in a protected screened enclosure for release back into the wild. Things are looking up !



So far, this
