John and Lus Maria Hagey live in Harlingen, Cameron Co., the southmost
county in Texas. I talked to John and he said that he observed a female
Monarch laying eggs for about 45 minutes on either the 13th or 14th of
February. He said that all these larvae appear to be the same age and that
he first noticed they were devouring the tropical milkweed on March 6th.
Their milkweed is planted on the north side of their house. The first
Monarch they noticed was on January 6th.
