Monarch, Captive-Reared
Sightings report image

Date: 10/07/2016

Number: 1

My last monarch of the season emerged on the 7th, released on 8th. A male, beautiful and healthy. He was number 294 that I raised from eggs and larvae found on my common and butterfly milkweed grown in my garden. Waystation #11792. I found way more eggs than the total number of healthy monarchs released. The latter part of the season was especially hard. Next year will try different ways to see if helps their survival rate. Anyway my count is 100 more that last year. I love Monarchs!!
