Visual Effects

[Randy Emmitt]

Stan,

Although I don't collect with a net, I use a camera instead. The only 
butterfly dreams I have are the mystery ones that get away. The butterfly 
dreams I have had in the past have always included sulphurs, notably the 
Orange-barred Sulphur (Phoebis philea) I think I saw in the Green Swamp(in 
the NC coastal plain) a few years back and the often hunted Southern 
Dogface (Colias [Zerene] which I did have the luck to find finally along 
the Ohio River Valley.
