Observed first adult Monarch I have seen this season; watched it as it alighted on various plants (I specifically planted my garden for butterflies). I saw it land on an emerging milkweed plant I planted last year. Upon closer inspection I found the egg it laid on the emerging milkweed plant, Asclepias tuberosa L. (see attached photo).
