Thessalia fulvia and Apodemia nais in SE Arizona

[Hank Brodkin]

Two interesting species today in the Huachucas - a Fulvia Checkerspot
(Thessalia fulvia) near the bottom of Carr Canyon nectaring on Mimosa
biuncifera (Wait-a-minute Bush), and a Nais Metalmark mudding  and
basking on grass stems in Miller Creek at the end of Miller Canyon Road.
