Finally... and reminders!

[ButterflyPR at comcast.net]

I was really feeling left out--my mother (in Westport), a student (in Manchester), and my husband (in our Chester backyard) all told me that they had seen orange and black butterflies over the past few days.  My mother's description sounded like an anglewing.  Anyway, I know they're old news, but I finally saw my first Cabbage White.  It came out with the fisher-people for opening day at Cedar Lake!
