Number: 161

Today late in the afternoon I did a survey of some of the milkweed ~ checking for eggs and larvae. I looked at 197 milkweed plants. I found 161 monarch eggs, 27 1st instars, 12 2nd instars, 4 3rd instars, 0 4th instars, and 1 5th instar. Most of the 1st instars were newborns.

This is a photo of a newborn larva along with 2 eggs on the buds of a fresh milkweed.
