One lone monarch egg was found along a railroad track in Marietta, PA on 5/13. Last spring I found the first eggs of the year at this location on 5/5. At that time I found over 150 eggs during the next week. It is very unusual to find only one egg in an area such as this with lots of milkweed. I hope this isn't an indication of how the summer will be.
