On one of my block survey trips July 29 I observed a female monarch on a 
milkweed.  This was in a hay field that had been cut and the milkweed was 
only about 8" high with one other about 3' away.   Curiousity prompted me 
to check the plant.  Lo! an egg - I suspect, freshly laid!   I brought it 
home on the leaf.  It has 'hatched!"  Now to observe 'the rest of the story.'

My question - will the emerging monarch be a migrator or will there be 
another generation?
