<DIV><FONT face=Arial>8/17 I was surprised reading todays reports to find
that no one posted any high numbers of PAINTED LADIES. I don't know
where they all came from but at my home yard in Old Lyme today I counted 23
once and 27 the second time around. They were on verbena (purple),
buddleia (four bushes all purple) and a low sort of bushy zinnia that is
around my flag pole. I have had a half dozen round for the last week or
more but nothing like today. I could not pick out any American
Painted among them.</FONT></DIV>
