In my garden, within the last few days, 14 new eggs sighted on milkweed leaves. This is the third "wave" of egg laying in my garden this season. (There are also 4 small cats on the same group of plants.)
Meanwhile, plants on my porch are eaten down to stubs, no eggs. Inside, I have 2 in chrysalis, and two close to being ready for that stage. (Each of the four is a few days behind or ahead of the others, so adults should emerge in a staggered pattern.) When all have successfully emerged and flown off, I will report here again.
