A little old lady staggered through my yard at 5 pm, the damaged
wing probably made flying straight hard to do, and she was faded.
She left 15-20 eggs for my MTN teachers. Manitoba schools run
through late June, so the students have a chance to see an adult.
(tough luck for the schools with air-conditioning!)
She favoured Dwarf Milkweed (A.Ovalifolia) over Common by 2:1.
This is the earliest in my 10 years of keeping records.
