David,
The Georgia butterfly site is very nice and one that I was not aware.
Thank you for adding another link to my digital butterfly favorites and to
others.

Butterflies of Arkansas
Continuing along the same line, I thought I might point out this website for
many of the East TN butterflyers that are probably in Georgia quite often.
It is run by Jim Flynn of Forsyth Co., Georgia (NE of Atlanta), and
basically it is like a supplement to BAMONA. It pulls the county maps from
BAMONA, however, what I like about it is that you can view the photos from
each county. Now they aren't necessarily the same photos that were submitted
to BAMONA for that county, but at least you can see the proof that it has
occurred in that county. It still needs a lot of filling in, there's a lot
of BAMONA records that don't have photos on the site. For instance when I
went through I found that there were a lot of butterflies that were marked
on the BAMONA map that didn't have a photo for the sight. So if any of you
butterfly in Georgia keep this site in mind and send in your photos if you
find any! It's really nice that you can see when the photo was taken, where
in that county it was taken, and who took the photo! You can view it by
counties, or, the way I like, by species (where it shows every photo for
that species). This site is also helpful for me when I'm trying to identify
something because there's normally a huge variety of photos for each
species.

Finding a new butterfly digital link is neat and Butterflies of Arkansas,
http://www.hr-rna.com/RNA/Butterfly%20main.htm, is one to consider adding to
your favorites. Arkansas has over 150 species of butterflies, many that also
occur in Tennessee, making this site compatible for Tennessee. You click on
groups of butterflies and then on specific species on a left side bar. There
are usually several images per species with some identification comments.
Most of the images are from Arkansas and those elsewhere are so noted. There
are separate dot maps by counties of each species. There is no search
button, but once you get to a group of butterflies, you can do a find and it
highlights the species in the left column. There also is a list of butterfly
species in Arkansas though not directly linked. This is the only site found
so far with images of both Bell's and Linda's Roadside-Skippers. There is a
small section of some Central America butterflies. In addition, there are
sections on dragonflies, robber flies, spiders, other insects, and reptiles
and amphibians. The easiest way to get to these is at the bottom of the
photo page, http://www.hr-rna.com/RNA/Photography%20page.htm. This is a
project listed as RNA (Random Natural Acts), home page at
http://www.hr-rna.com/RNA/. If you at the home page, click the button for
photos and all the links to the various subjects are at the bottom of that
page.
