Middletown--Mattabesett Trail

[butterflypr at comcast.net]

On Thursday 4/19, I went for a hike by Seven Falls, around the power lines. This may be a place for a future field trip... I was not there to look for butterflies, but I saw: 


at least 5 Duskywing (assuming Juvenal's) 
4 Spring Azures, and one small dark butterfly that may have been a female 
3 Clouded Sulphurs 
2 Cabbage Whites 
at least 5 anglewings 


Need to get back there with a net! 


Question--are we seeing both Orange and Clouded Sulphurs now? I saw several sulphurs around the lawn at work earlier the same day (also in Middletown), and some were clearly very light yellow, while others had an orange tint. I was not able to see any up close, though.
