The day after rain and a 35 degree evening, I went to check to see if there were eggs in fields I usually check. One had been mowed down. In the 2nd field I found 17 fresh Monarch eggs. No sign of older eggs or caterpillar activity. The Monarchs were not visable because the weather in the afternoon was 65 degrees and they usually do not fly in a chill. I will return to other fields this weekend. I think they came a week or two later this year than usual. We usually see activity in warmer weather from April 1-25.
