Today I watched as one lone female frantically was laying eggs. She was very faded and wings torn in two places.
She would lay eggs then rest with wings open in the sun just sitting on the mulch ....then more egg laying.... then resting.
No feeding on the many purple coneflower blooming.
Just egg laying and resting.
