I spent some time at Enterprise South Nature Park this afternoon, it was a nice afternoon but quite windy. Despite the wind there were a number of butterflies out. Falcate Orangetip Clouded Sulphur Mourning Cloak Azure sp. Duskywing sp. - The one I got a good look at appears to be a Horace's, both in the field and looking at pictures afterward I didn't see any spots on the underside of the hind wing. This is probably a FOY for the county. I saw several others but could never get a look at the underside of the wings. Goatweed Leafwing. - This would have been FOY and BAMONA for the county except that Jack Gentle found several at Amnicola Marsh on March 17. Eastern Tiger Swallowtail David Spicer Ooltewah, Hamilton County
