Watched a monarch nectaring on the butterflyweed nearby about 4 pm. As I watched the monarch out my patio doors I noticed it would fly back and forth to the non-blooming swamp milkweed [out of direct sight], then come back to nectar. That left me suspicious that it was a gravid female. After it left I checked the swamp milkweed and found about 7 eggs on my swamp milkweed! Normally I don't find eggs before late August or early September.
