A couple of shots from yesterday. male Ebony Jewelwing. Males outnumbered females by about 5 to 1. Last year it was just the opposite. http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p193/kjchilds/IMG_4201-Edit.jpg Great Blue Skimmers http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p193/kjchilds/IMG_4222-Edit.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p193/kjchilds/IMG_4225-Edit.jpg Ken Childs Henderson, TN Chester County http://www.finishflagfarms.com ________________________________ From: kjchilds <kjchilds@xxxxxxxxx> To: TN Butterflies <TN-Butterflies@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>; tn-dragonflies <tn-dragonflies@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sun, June 6, 2010 7:37:23 PM Subject: [TN-Butterflies] Today's wanderings Today I visited an area that had good numbers of Northern and Southern Pearly-eyes and App. Browns last year. It also had huge numbers of Satyrs. I only had about 45 minutes to check the area and found very few butterflies. Eastern Tiger Swallowtail 1 Little Wood-Satyr 2 Creole Pearly-eye 1 Other interesting things seen: Ebony Jewelwing Damselfly 30 Stream Cruiser Dragonfly2 Fawn 1 A couple of hours later I spent about 15 minutes in another area that also had good numbers of Pearly-eyes and Browns last year. I didn't see a single butterfly but there were tons of Dragonflies with most being Great Blue Skimmers so it wasn't a complete waste of time.
