A very good week, saw my first hummingbird the 5 of April and my first Monarch the 7 of April. She was laying eggs on plants of Asclepia tuberosa. She was doing a lot of resting in the sun as she was very tired ( probaby so, she has had such a long trip) but after resting she would go back to the butterfly weeds again and again. She stayed around all afternoon. Saw her again today (4/8). I took some pictures which I will post, of her laying an egg and the egg on the plant. I live in Southaven, Mississippi just a few miles south of Memphis, Tennessee.
