Milkweed blooming

I'm pretty certain it's Common Milkweed - Asclepias syriaca that is currently blooming.  We have a lot, although milkweed sometimes has pollination challenges because the flower design inhibits some insects, and the stickiness is sometimes to much for the more fragile insects, which often die because they're unable to escape.
