Monarch Egg Sighted

Date: 08/25/2016

Number: 4

Checked two 6x6 patches of common milkweed but only four eggs.
No caterpillars were seen.
Carefully inspected top six - eight leaves on mature milkweeds for eggs before cutting them off. Since there are a few eggs, the hope is that the pruning of the plant will force new tender growth for the potential caterpillars.

There was no sigh of eggs or caterpillars on the the swamp milkweed, butterfly weed or whorled milkweed. Last year there was activity on all of the above plants.
