Once again, the(common)milkweed has "snuck up" on me. Where there was nothing 2 weeks ago, today I now see milkweed as tall as 10 inches. I collected about 12 eggs from different plants. I have yet to see an adult but the eggs mean they must be in the area.

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.
