We haven’t had any rain in a while so I went to water the milkweed patch. I had seen monarchs flying around but wasn’t sure if they were laying eggs. Turns out they were! Counted at least 10 but I’m sure there are many more.
Our common milkweed is burnt to a crisp now, but the late fall rhizomes are starting to come up. We’re seeing monarchs for the first time this year and they don’t have as many places to go.

I hope you gave it a good watering!

Makes me sad
