I also had my head in the milkweed today looking for cats when I heard a fluttering beside me. Sure enough, Mommy Monarch had come to lay eggs. Once she settled, I picked her up (don't try that at home, kids) and relocated her to another area of the yard where I have milkweed growing but hasn't attracted eggs yet. I mean, one plant can only take so much! Well, it's actually four plants by the house but they keep laying on the one all the way to the right for some reason. Project Monarch Relocation was a success as I got her to lay eggs on my other milkweeds!
