Came out a door on the north end of the main museum building to release a jumping spider found inside about 11 am today. Right by the doorway I saw a female monarch butterfly laying eggs on the common milkweed in the bed next to this door, off public view. I watched her lay 2 eggs and she probably continued laying more, but I had to go back inside and couldn't linger to find out. Thank you, little lost spider, for leading me to this sighting!
