From Newington

[Roy Zartarian]

This is a cumulative list of the weekend's (8/12 & 13) haul both at  
the buddleia in the yard  and on Cedar Mountain behind the Humane  
Society.  I was especially happy to see the Red-Spotted Purples.   
Their appearance here is not an annual one, but in the past week I've  
gotten them not only in the yard but also in the new butterfly garden  
at my church about 3/4 mi. away.  These sightings follow that of a  
fresh and cooperative White Admiral during my Lake Champlain sojourn.
