Great photo ops as they were nectaring on Milkweed along the mowed  trail in 
Bodman Meadow (close to the parking area). All were freshly emerged.  Also 
plenty of freshly emerged Anglewings also nectaring on the Milkweed.
For those who have not been to Walden Preserve it is a great place to see  
butterflies, birds and dragonflies. 
There will be a butterfly walk there July 1 at 9:00  AM
