There have been up to 4 Monarchs visiting my garden at any given time of the day ever since early December, & at last I am finding caterpillars & eggs on the swan plants. Some of the cats are at the 5th instar, so I’m not sure where they have been hiding!
The big ones I am bringing inside, also some of the eggs.
The swan plants in my netted area are now starting to poke through the top of the netting, & the butterflies are obviously finding them as there are eggs there. Perhaps the season tho late, is starting to get under way………… Let’s hope so. I do notice that some of the female butterflies are penetrating deep into the plant to lay, also tending to lay deep into the flower buds; probably safer from wasps there
