I’m pretty sure I have one swamp milkweed sprouting up. It's still very small, and out of my dozens of plants there is only one so far. I'm sure it won't be long, because the weather has been unseasonably warm for months. Fingers crossed for a good season.

I spread some composted manure in my garden on Saturday, and I had one or two Red Admirals show up right away. But I didn't see waves of them like I’m reading some people have seen. That would be cool.

Maybe I should spread some more manure and put out some rotting fruit, and see what shows up!
