The hayfields on the family farm were cut on Aug 10 and the hay baled about the 17th. It finally rained the 20 and 21st and the A. syriaca has regenerated considerably so that now the plants are anywhere from a couple of inches to 6 inches tall. Today I saw three females ovipositing on these small but fresh plants. And this afternoon in one part of the field that has a number of milkweeds I counted 7 eggs and 6 first star larvae. Hope they have time to make it.
