Hi All

We have started to see more monarch butterflies in our field and on the 
flowers in the garden, e.g. 7 on Thursday, but are not seeing the great 
numbers of chrysalis attaching to the side of the house and garage that 
we had last year. So far we have noticed 5 on the garage and 1 on the 
house and at least 3 on milkweed plants. We counted over 60 caterpillars 
last weekend, and speculate most of the caterpillars are pupating in the 
field, so we will not be able to track them as easily as when they were 
closer to the house.


Alison and Larry Bogan
