Cleaning up my waystation some more and saw a beautiful Monarch again! I watched her for a good half hour laying eggs on the swamp milkweed shoots. It is so amazing how they can find such small milkweed emerging to lay their eggs. Multiple eggs on some shoots, I counted 20 eggs so far. I have butterfly weed (not up too much yet), swamp milkweed and common milkweed in that spot...she only laid eggs on the swamp milkweed.
