Monarch Larva (FIRST sighted)

Date: 06/03/2011

Number: 1

Just went for a walk through the field I usually get my monarchs in and found my first monarch caterpillar of the year. Haven’t seen a monarch butterfly yet, just several yellow swallowtails. Interestingly, one of the tornados went through the edge of that field and left some tree damage. The egg for this little guy must have been laid just about that time. Didn’t seem to bother him any! This is the earliest I have ever found caterpillars here.
