I walked about 10 acres of a 75 acre field of wild flowers and Johnson grass looking for milkweed. So far I have found 1 viridis, 3 antelope horn and 53 zizotes but only 1 egg. With all these Indian Blanket and Horsemint, I expected Monarchs but have seen none. Other butterflies are there. This tract is the site of a huge planned unit development and I have permission to salvage milkweed until they break ground. It borders on Shoal Creek and has been wild for 50-75 years maybe.
