Today I went to check on the common milkweed in the wild area in the
back of our property and what a surprise to find 6 eggs spread over 3
plants. The plants are anywhere between 4-6" long with leaves still
unfolded. My incarnata are up but I haven't checked the numerous plants
yet for eggs. I have not seen any monarchs though. Perhaps this female
was just passing through on her way further north?
