>From Frank Mantlik, with Bill Van Loan & Alec Wiggins,
9/30/2012 Stratford, near 500 Long Beach Blvd., Stew McKinney NWR, RR Trail -
Butterflies were abundant during our afternoon birding walk here this afternoon
(1:30 - 3:30pm), highlighted by another LITTLE YELLOW at the start of the trail,
and 100+ Red Admirals all along, especially on/around the abundant flowering
Groundsel-Tree.

No skippers seen!
Bill Van Loan also told me that while at Stratford Point recently (in the past
month?), he saw an AMERICAN SNOUT and a COMMON CHECKERED SKIPPER. He was going
to get the info (date, photos?) to me soon, but I thought it was worth reported
them here now.
