Well my trip to the ditch netted one more cat which was about the very same size and is now in captavity with it's uncle? aunt?, and a plant top in bloom. Funny how I didn't remember it be a mauve color. Guess 'cause when it goes to seed it flies around all white and fluffy. Here you go.

And having never held a milkweed bloom in hand I didn't realize they are rather fragrant. Hmmm.This one is blooming about 1/3 of the way from the top. It will continue to set more flowers lower down as the season progresses. (I think?) I pinch the top off in the garden and then find I have to remove more and more attempts at seed as the months progress.
