Monarch Egg (FIRST sighted)

Date: 04/08/2017

Number: 7

Was out of town for a week and check milkweed upon my return. Eggs are common on A. asperula. Typically 1-2 per plant but found one plant with 7 eggs and as many as 3 on one stem. Gravid females appear to select plants with 3-5 stems (avoid older plants with 15-25 stems). I hope to collect data this year on this observation.
