Fluctuating spring weather is not slowing down robins. More sightings in Canada are being reported and observations of nesting behavior are increasing as well.
After getting daily visits from Monarch Butterflies, Dwaine was worried that all eggs and larva would be eaten. He saw many birds and lizards eating the caterpillars and plants. Dwaine initially counted 5 eggs and over 5 caterpillars so far this year.

But then did not see any for awhile. Finally he found one!
