I had to be at Henry Horton SP today, so I took an hour this afternoon to
scout out the butterflies on Wilhoyte Trail and River Road. All below
should be First-Of-Year for the county.
Falcate Orangetip ~30 males & ~10 females. Most females seen were
nectaring, on a small chickweed etc., and in a rocky area on glade cress. A
few
males were nectaring.
Cabbage White - 1
E. Tiger Swallowtail - 2
Juniper Hairstreak - 1 - finally, I see something besides bumble bees
nectaring on Henbit!
My first odonates for the year - Fragile Forktail, 2 males at a sinkhole
pond.
