Today I spent two hours chasing down about a million Falcate Orangetips in the 
hopes that one would turn out to be a Marble.  I took one last stop on my own 
property because there were Plantain-leaf Pussytoes in bloom.   I clicked one 
last "Falcate" pic: an orange-tipped male chasing a female.   The female turned 
out to be an Olympia Marble.   On my property and very easy to get to.  It was 
afterr 4:00.  I'll go there tomorrow earlier in the day, and up the hill to see 
if/ how many more there are.   Anyone is welcome to come look with me.  Just 
email me, and I'll give you directions to my house, and we'll go together.

BTW  FOY: Monarch and Olympia Marble (pic)

I sent this to moth lists and bird list also, because some folks are into 
anything that is wild and flies.
