Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)
Sightings report image

Date: 04/14/2017

Number: 56

After reading your recent newsletter and noting that a friend had filmed a Monarch Butterfly flying over barren farm fields less than an hour south of here on April 13, I went out to check my Swamp Milkweed shoots this morning.

I was shocked to count 56 eggs on two small patches of milkweed. I've never seen so many eggs so tightly clustered before.
