FOS Female Monarch in my garden. See looked to be in fine shape, a little on the small side. I have 4 species of milkweed throughout my garden. The only one she stopped to taste was the swamp. She went all around the garden tasting only the swamps. I do have some milkweed blooming, but she didn't stop to lay eggs or nectar. After about 15 min.s she flew on to the North.
This is the 2nd Monarch I've seen since the torrential rains moved east after Saturday. With the system moving out I think we'll be seeing many more Monarchs.
