[Ctleps-l] CBA Field trip report

[Epmanshell at aol.com]

On Saturday, 6/16, 14 participants joined me for a survey of the  
butterflies at Stratford Point.  We found a total of 11 species.  The  list for the 
day was as follows:
 
Black Swallowtail (5)
Cabbage White (8)
Clouded Sulphur (4)
Orange Sulphur (10)
Eastern Tailed Blue (10)
Pearl Crescent (1)
American Lady (3)
Monarch (2)
European Skipper (25)
Tawny-edged Skipper (1) (very worn)
 
Two Viceroys flew along the fence outside the property when I was  leaving.
 
If 2011 was any indication, August and September is a much better time to  
visit this site for butterflies.
