Finally we are getting sightings and eggs in arctic (really cold
spring!) Central Ohio!
My coworker saw a female near one milkweed patch and of course I ran right out to check it and found 3 eggs. Noting that the prevailing wind would take her across the lake to some milkweed patches on the other side, I trotted around there and found 9 more eggs!
Our MLMP patches were empty on the 21st - I'll hope she finds them for the next check.

3/4ths of the eggs were tucked into the small leaves at the top of the plant. No signs of egg loading here - don't I wish!!!
