Since I discovered this shot, I've seen several Cloudeds with the checkered
fringe. The sun came out for a few minutes this afternoon and I saw 2 just like
this one. All I've seen with this checkered fringe were frosty fresh looking
individuals.
Cloudeds are very common here and I'm able to ID most from a distance. I'm
betting these checkered ones have always been here but I wasn't looking closely
enough to notice it.
