<p class="MsoNormal">I was disappointed not to get to Machimoodus this morning! Still needed more milkweed for my caterpillars, so popped up to Haddam Meadows late afternoon. Raining when I left home, but sunny when I arrived!<br>
<br>
Quite a few Monarchs flying, at least a dozen, some ovipositing. Gathered a few eggs and a couple caterpillars. Did NOT gather a late instar that was hanging out in poison ivy!<br>
<br>
Also saw: <br>
3 Tiger Swallowtails<br>
3 Spicebush Swallowtails <br>
2 Cabbage Whites<br>
At least 10 Pearl Crescents<br>
2-3 Peck’s Skippers<br>
3-4 Silver Spotted Skippers<br>
2 Anglewing sp—was able to photograph one, appeared to be Eastern Comma<br>
<br>
Also a couple of Hummingbirds, hanging out on jewelweed.<br>
<br>
Hoping the remaining field trips this month will get better weather!<br>
<br>
