Saw one adult @11:30am. 3 blocks west of Lake Michigan. No photo taken.
I’m not 100% certain it was a monarch but I’m comfortable saying that I’m 99% sure. For the past 2 yrs I’ve been collecting eggs from my milkweed and releasing monarchs. I have yet to see any other butterflies (swallowtails, painted ladies,red admirals) but the weather hasn’t been great so I haven’t been in the yard much.
My milkweed is not up yet.
An acquaintance also saw one on 5/3/2020 about a mile from my house.
