I didn't see this female Monarch butterfly come into my yard. But I found what she had left on the 2 milkweed plants that aren't covered...about 15 eggs.
The problem is that the cold and wet winter hasn't allowed my milkweed plants to leaf out yet. And this is the earliest I"ve ever had a female lay eggs on my milkweed plants.

Editor's Note: The presence of eggs means an adult monarch has arrived in this area. Therefore, we are adding this egg report to the migration map.
