Hope I'm using the correct address this time, just bounced one back... 


Took a drive this afternoon, mostly to seek Monarch eggs. Quickly found a dozen or so, then took a walk around the loop, despite increasingly ominous skies. Made it back to my car just as the rain started! 


Definite sightings: 
Monarch--about 20? 
American Copper--25+ Thought I saw a similar sized blue flying around with them, but didn't get a good look. Netted a small beige butterfly--possibly an extremely worn copper or azure? 
Baltimore Checkerspot-1! 
Orange Sulphur--guessing about a dozen--not sure whether there was also Clouded--the big question, when I first arrived, I saw one that looked significantly larger than the others and somewhat chartreuse in color. Is there ANY chance that Cloudless could be here now?? 
American Lady--a few definite 
Red Admiral--a few definite 
(several fly-bys that could have been either Vanessa) 
Spicebush Swallowtail--1 
Anglewing sp.--1
