New Year butterflies for me

[Clay Taylor]

Hi -

    I briefly stopped at the Horse Hill Road powerline in Westbrook (about 1/2 mile south of Messerschmitt Pond) on Sunday morning.  I was greeted by a big, gaudy dragonfly that I have not yet been able to pin a name on, but I was there to look for Great Spangled Fritillary.  Sure enough, one went cruising by along the treeline, but that was the only one I saw.  Also saw one Hoary Edge, along with American Lady, Red Admiral (big surprise), Juvenal's Duskywing (tattered), and an E. Tiger Swallowtail.
