There was nothing on my milkweed plants two days ago but my friend reported a Monarch oviposting on his plants in Winnipeg so I went back to check my plants today. I collected 20+/- eggs, cutting generous stems and keeping them in water until the eggs hatch. Tomorrow I'll go through the leaves and flower clusters carefully to filch out any predators lurking in the folds.

Editor's Note: The presence of eggs means an adult monarch has arrived in this area. Therefore, we are adding this egg report to the migration map.
