I found three eggs on my common milkweed. These are my first eggs of the year. I haven't even seen a monarch yet - but I know one was there. The cats are doing well and are about 2nd or 3rd instars now. I even have a butterfly garden at work - this is it's second year. I have a gorgeous crop of tropical milkweed but no eggs yet. I'm checking daily now. Two years ago I had 56 eggs at home in April - this year none until July. I have seen several swallowtails but not even one monarch anywhere.
