Hi Folks,Here are the results from today's Jackson Count. There was good
diversity, but individuals were way off. The big highlight for the day was the
Long-tailed Skipper. My neighbors got one a little over a week ago in Shelby
County, so it looks like the Long-taileds have moved in. Keep an eye out for
them in your neighborhood, especially in the morning. Bart JonesMemphis, Shelby
Co.
