Lep Folks,

any Little Metalmarks,
but had a good list. My individual list which will differ a bit from the
others is as follows:
1. Eastern Tiger Swallowtail 3
2. Spicebush Swallowtail 8
3. Palamedes Swallowtail 4
4. Little Yellow 20
5. Gray Hairstreak 12
6. Red-banded Hairstreak 5
7. Eastern Tailed-Blue 1
8. Reakirt's Blue 1 Can't go anywhere without finding this, which I was told
was rare Pictures to Craig
9. Pearl Crescent 14
10. American Lady 1
11. Common Buckeye 2
12. Red-spotted Purple 1 (plus 2 more in Rapides Parish on way home)
13. Carolina Satyr 5
14. Georgia Satyr 5 New one plus some good photos Thanks Craig
15. Common Wood-Nymph 5 Jeff and Rosemary told me this one was really hard
to find in LA….I 'm beginning to wonder??

17. Wild Indigo Duskywing 2 new one

We then stopped in a wooded area of the Kisatchie NF in Rapides Parish on our
way home and had:

Hubert and I added an American Snout (#22 for day list) at the Boyce Recreation

It was a great day to be in the field. Thanks to Craig and Dave for your
expertise.
