Great news on my corner of the garden. Tonight just as sundown, I discovered my first Monarch's larva; must be newly hatched! Followed with 8 others. Yes! Everywhere I looked there were predatory critters laden the A. curassavica (Mexican MW), such as spider and such. So I adopted those little ones and they're my very first ones for the season.

They're too small, slightly the size of a little piece of thread at this time. I'll post follow-up photos as they grow a tad bigger.

I missed seeing the butterflies when they were here. But undoubtedly they've visited!
