<div dir="ltr">7/5 - I made a short stop at the Naugatuck Industrial Park (<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">Raytkwich Road)</span> today. Very windy, but there was a lot flying after yesterday's rain from Arthur. Highlights were two HICKORY HAIRSTREAKS and at least nine Acadian Hairstreaks.<br>
<div><br></div><div>The Hickory Hairstreaks were on sumac and dogbane, very close to where I had one last year. One Banded Hairstreak was with them.</div><div><br></div><div>Photo: <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/connecticutpete/14580539371/in/photostream/lightbox/">https://www.flickr.com/photos/connecticutpete/14580539371/in/photostream/lightbox/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Most of the Acadians were in the pipeline cut, with up to six dogfighting at once, though they were hard to follow so the total count should probably be higher.</div><div><br></div><div>I also walked Osbornedale SP's fields in Derby and had:</div>
