Today I saw the first monarch eggs on the milkweed plants (Asclepias viridis) that grow in our pastures. I photographed a faded monarch female laying eggs on several different plants. She was quite expert at finding the young milkweed. The time was around noon on a sunny, clear day with a temperature of 68 degrees F.
