Female Monarch butterfly flitting around my backyard. First Monarch I have sighted in my area all year; very unusual to not have seen one already here, as usually by mid to late June I have already seen several. I leave milkweed growing up for them to use deliberately, but still have found no eggs and no caterpillars. I live in a rural area with farm fields comprising a good majority of the land near my house.
