We were very excited to see a female monarch laying eggs on some troical milkweed we have planted in our garden. She was faded but in fairly good shape. She stayed for several minutes depositing several eggs on the four plants of milkweed we have. Judging from the length of time she stayed on the plants we will need to find some more milkweed soon. We did not want to disturb her so we have not counted the eggs yet. We are on spring break next week so we should have "babies" when we get back.
