I have not seen a butterfly in my yard for days. I have many nectar flowers in
my yard and usually have many butterflies using them at this time of year--but
not this summer. So I decided to go to Eddie Jones Park in southwestern Caddo
Parish. Surprisingly, there were quite a few species there. Nothing unusual,
but I saw a total of 24 species and it was nice to see them. See the complete
list below.
