Number: 72

It was 80 degrees yesterday (May 16), and my Sullivant’s (prairie) milkweed shot out of the ground like asparagus. And so naturally, by afternoon, this happened, about three dozen times:

I did an egg count this morning (5/17) to see how many were dropped yesterday, and came up with 72, plus I probably missed a few. Added to the 12 collected Tuesday, that’s 84 or more in the first two days since first arrival.
