Where the heck are the Monarch Butterfly's?

I haven't seen a single Monarch Butterfly this year.
The Butterfly weed and Milkweed usually have loads of caterpillars feeding on them by now.

  1. Hi Netty, Now that you mention it, I haven't seen any caterpillars either and we have oodles of milkweed. That's too bad. I hope it may just be a temporary thing, due to our late spring.

    Your vegetable garden is looking great; I never even got mine planted this year. Too bad about the beetles, I don't know how they find their way to gardens, it must be radar or something.

    I loved your earlier posts with the gorgeous flowers, too!

  2. I've heard they never made it past Kansas because of the neonictinide pesticides. We haven't had one either.
