Temperatures in the 60's, with only occasional sunshine reaching into the
hollows where there was a little protection from the breeze. I was searching
through the Juvenal's Duskywings hoping for a Horace's or Wild Indigo, so it
took me a moment to recognize the female Mottled Duskywing before me. The well
defined narrow median band of medium brown on the hindwing tipped me off.
Eventually I found another female Mottled lower on the trail, and almost got a
photo...maybe next time.
