Just yesterday we found Milkweed growing along the Delaware Canal Towpath, near Point Pleasant, PA. In looking at them I found 3 eggs, which look to be Monarch Butterfly eggs. 2 of them are still at that creamy/pearly white stage, while the 3rd is already getting dark - so we should have at least hatching of a caterpillar very soon!

This is the 1st time I've ever found Monarch eggs in the springtime, so it's exciting to us!
