Richard,
Extremely nice find; the first record for the state in at least 4 years,
assuming that all records have been reported, which probably isn't the case,
but close enough.

Visiting Meeman Shelby SP Tuesday and Wed. I stopped off at Eagle Lake and
got a lifer butterfly, before the monsoon rains set in. Bronze Copper, 1 male,
was on what looked like Prairie Mimosa (Desmanthus ill.?). From what I could
determine this is only the 3rd county record for this northern beauty.
