<a href="../index.html">Index of Su --001a113ad7ded722150538772ed4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Hi All, First Monarch that I have seen in Port Williams was last Thursday, 21 July, in a very small bowl like hollow south of the sand pit west of Port Williams School that is full of blooming milk weed. This spot has had breeding monarch butterflies for many years (except I didn't see any last year). The milk weed can be smelled from quite a distance at this season. I will check again for others.
