5/12 - West Rock Ridge SP - My dad and I climbed West Rock today looking
for butterflies. Hot temps probably kept the Juniper Hairstreak total down
to 1. We managed:

Black Swallowtail 2
Tiger Swallowtail 2
Spicebush Swallowtail 1
Cabbage White
FALCATE ORANGETIP 7
JUNIPER HAIRSTREAK 1
Eastern Tailed Blue 5
American Lady 2
Juvenal's Duskywing 15

The Juniper was nectaring from birdsfoot violets inside the Judges Cave
parking area circle. My favorite three shots from the day:

This one shows the bright green/turquoise that shows when the sun hits at
certain angles:
