While checking my swamp milkweed this evening, I found more than 20 eggs on 3 sets of plants. They were still yellow, indicating that they were laid today. There were some leaves that had more than one egg. The plants are about 8 inches tall now. I also noted that there were no eggs found on the white milkweed (ice ballet asclepias).

Editor's Note: The presence of eggs means an adult monarchs has arrived in this area. Therefore, we are adding this egg report to the migration map.
