[Ctleps-l] Mad River Dam, Winchester

[Peter J De Gennaro]

Here are some photos from the Mad River Dam area from last Saturday with
Lenny Brown. Still have to go through a lot of them, that's the problem
with tame butterflies. The Harvester was on bird droppings; we would have
missed it if I wasn't trying to photograph a duskywing on the ground near
it.
