I went to my favorite wild milkweed patch on RT 60 between Frewsburg and Kiantone and collected eight eggs and brought them home. I am sure there were lots more but it was very hot and muggy so I only checked a few plants.
Two plants had one egg, one plant had two eggs, and the third plant had 5 eggs.
The milkweed has really sprung up the last week, so we are in good shape here at Waystation 686 as far as having a nice supply of milkweed on hand for our fluttery friends.
