The gardens behind the Enfield Senior Center have become progressively more productive.
For the past few days there have been three to four Broad-winged Skippers. Today, there were 12 to 20. Lots in two different sections, one area of Broad-winged's was similar to the many Pearl Crescents at our feet on Saturday's trip at Flaherty Field.
Also
Easter Tiger Swallowtail
Great Spangled Fritillary
Silver-spotted Skipper
Two Snowberry Moths
And, pictured below, possible Mulberry Wing. I am a novice with LBJ skippers, so I would appreiate any different opinions on the ID. This butterfly was in a different area, on a different plant type surrounded only by bees. Noticeable was the white face, black antena clubs and the overall dark color with bright yellow on HW. This was the best photo I could get beause of the strong breeze constantly blowing the flowers. I'll be back tomorrow after teaching a class at the Center in the morning. Click on photo to enlarge.
