8/7 Westport, Compo Beach - About 12:45 I saw a LITTLE YELLOW flying around the
northwest side of the park, near the small sailboats. Having never seen one
before, I remembered Steve Spector's report of one in coastal Milford a week or
two ago. I followed this small, bright yellow, low-flying lep around for about
5 minutes until it finally landed. I then could see the distinctive dark
(brown) smudge near the margin of the underwing, and a few other small dots
elsewhere. I don't know how rare this species is, but unfortunately I didn't
have my camera with me at the time.
