Monarch Egg Sighted
Sightings report image

Number: 10

Very hard to find eggs on narrowleaf milkweed.
Laid yesterday but I saw none readily yesterday eve.
Today I used a magnifying glass at the flower buds I had seen her stopping at.
She laid a few on top of bud clusters and laid more underneath the clusters.
If she laid any on leaves that would be hard to find.
I wouldn’t have found any if I had not seen her behavior.
I do not know how many eggs she actually left, but she spent 2-3 hours occasionally doing ovipositing type behavior.
