Hey Ken, Yes, seems like the Gulfs have exploded over the past couple of weeks. I saw quite a few in Decatur County last weekend and lots at Eagle Lake and Sunk Lake the weekends before that. I'm seeing several flying through my yard every day in the city.

Is anyone seeing numbers like this? Ken Childs Henderson, TN Chester County http://tinyurl.com/Kens-Moths-2011 http://tinyurl.com/Night-Creatures http://www.finishflagfarms.com
