Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Hi Mike, this is the earliest sighting of a Monarch in our gardens, then in the first part of June a female was observed depositing eggs on garden milkweed, another record-breaker for me. Overall a great year for Monarchs! Kind of slow for butterflies in general, though, excessive Spring and Summer heat coupled with early Fall freezes did not seem to help. Thanks for all you do! ~ Char

Coordinator notes: Thanks for the info on how well the Monarch did in your area this year. Obviously, if you have host plants, they will find it! Mike
