Based on some wear markings I believe this to be the same adult monarch I reported about a week ago. In first week I didn’t observe any ovipositing behavior and saw her almost daily just nectaring. The last 2 days I observed the ovipositing position and located many eggs today on native milkweeds. I don’t have tropical milkweed present in my yard. The egg shown is on incarnata.
