When I first looked at the photo by Steve, I thought it was not clear enough to
know that it was even a butterfly. I would have had to vote that it was not
sufficient for a county record. But the painstaking work that Ken used on the
photo, a job that would make any CSI envious, clearly shows that....we need to
look more carefully at every record Ken submits to BAMONA!!! *L*

It looks pretty certain in this enhanced version of your photo. :-)

The attached photo was all I could get before this big fellow took off and
disappeared.
I am thinking it is just too poor a photo to document this swallowtail in
Jackson County, but am wondering what others think should be done with it.
Any candid thoughts welcome, shared or sent only to me.
Thanks, Steve Stedman

Note: I did obtain five better quality photos that documented Fiery Skipper,
Little Glassywing, Dun Skipper, Little Yellow, and Gray Hairstreak in Jackson
County; presumably these constitute FOY records as well. sjs
