7/16 - I walked to a part of Naugauck Industrial Park where I've had large
numbers of Banded Hairstreaks in past years. They were there again today,
but it was interesting to watch them mob the numerous Gypsy Moths flying
past their territory.

I also did a quick stop into Brooksvale Park in Hamden today since I was in
the area (but had no bins):

Coral Hairstreak 3 (including one chasing Calico Pennants away from it's
territory).
Eastern Tailed Blue 1
Great Spangled Fritillary 4
Pearl Crescent 5
Little Wood Satyr 1
Common Wood Nymph 1
Silver-spotted Skipper 1
Northern Broken Dash 4
Little Glassywing 1

And an American Carrion Beetle.
