Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)
Sightings report image

Date: 05/17/2017

Number: 14

Was out in my front yard waiting for my daughter to get off the bus, seen some milkweed in my horse pasture so I jumped the fence and the first one I looked at had an egg. About 10 minutes of searching I found 14 eggs...then it started raining:( well over a hundred plants I'll be searching tomorrow. I have not seen a monarch this spring. This is the earliest I've seen eggs by about two weeks. I have over 1000 milkweed plants on my property and just today brought home 12 new plants (poke and showy). Bring on the monarchs, I'm ready for the abundant first generation that's about ready to head north.
