7/6 - I walked to Raytkwich Rd in the Naugatuck Industrial Park today a bit later than I hoped, looking for hairstreaks. The 6 Acadians is a personal high count. Three were at the milkweed stand near the road at the field/shrubland, including two on the same flowerhead: http://www.flickr.com/photos/connecticutpete/9224901389/in/photostream/ 

The other three were at the pipeline cut. I was able to get one to crawl on my finger: http://www.flickr.com/photos/connecticutpete/9227700046/in/photostream/

It was hot out by the time I arrived, so the hairstreaks were mostly staying low on flowers in the shade.


In total I found:


Black Swallowtail 1
Cabbage White 1
Orange Sulphur 10
American Copper 3
Acadian Hairstreak 6
Banded Hairsteak 5
Gray Hairstreak 1

Eastern Tailed Blue 1
Summer Azure 1

Great Spangled Frit 5
Little Wood Satyr 2
Silver-spotted Skipper 15
Wild Indigo Duskywing 3
Least Skipper 2
Little Glassywing many
Delaware Skipper 2
Broad-winged Skipper 1
