Hi all,
   We have had a male Monarch in our field now for about five days but the female we saw over a week ago did not stay.  We have not seen any eggs from the female. The common milkweed is in full flower and the the bees and other pollinators are swarming to them.

  Has anyone else seen a Monarch in Nova Scotia? I have scanned nearby patches of common milkweed and seen no Monarchs. Last year at this time we had been collecting eggs and larvae from our field and starting raising them. This year we are still hoping for some egg laying.

Larry
