Enjoyed a nice day afield with some good folk on the CBA Bent of the River
(Southbury) walk. Here's what we saw:
Eastern Tiger Swallowtails
Spicebush Swallowtails
Cabbages
Orange and Clouded Sulphurs
An American Copper
One Hickory Hairstreak
One Striped Hairstreak
An Eastern Tailed Blue
Many GS Fritillarys
A possible Meadow Frit (went by too fast to confirm)
Eastern Commas
American Ladies
Red Admirals
A Mourning Cloak
Two Red-spotted Purples
Some Wood Satyrs
Two Silver-spotted Skippers
Two Hoary Edges
A smattering of Southern Cloudywings
Least Skippers
Peck's Skippers
Two Hobomok Skippers
Dun Skippers
(22 sp)
Notably absent?
Common Wood Nymphs and Euro Disneys (Skippers). I don't think I've ever
missed them on a BOTR trip.
