Add a Gray Hairstreak, a Variegated Fritillary and a Checkered-Skipper to the 
mix.

There are still a few of the nectaring species hanging around. In the last 10 
minutes I've seen 3 Clouded Skippers, 1 Sachem, 1 Cloudless Sulphur and the 
biggest surprise was a Gulf Fritillary. The only wildflower species blooming 
here is Henbit which is where I found the Skippers. I still have plenty of 
Petunias but nothing seems to want them today. 


I also saw what I think was a Red Admiral on some mud in one of the pastures 
but I didn't get a good look at it.
