We have seen several Monarchs (about three at one time)feeding on our Buddleia-Butterfly Bushes and our Hollyhocks. I cannot tell the sex. I have also seen a few on our Milkweed and have found about 20 eggs. They are beginning to hatch, but after hatching some of the larvae have dissapperared. I cannot tell if the Monarchs I am seeing are the same ones revisiting each day or if they are different. Sometimes I see two chasing each other, perhaps they are mating.
