Butterfly Days II

Categories: Photo-Journal •September 10, 2007

Since bad weather was announced I headed out early again, before the stormfront arrived and checked whether I could add some species and images. And same thing as yesterday - just awesome to see the scenery.

I added the new image to yesterdays Gallery.

I was able to add more and compiled a list of the birds, I encountered in the last 3 days.

      4. Queen View definition in a new window *
      5. Zebra Heliconian *
      6. Zebra Swallowtail View definition in a new window *
      7. Sleepy Orange **
      8. Pink Edged Sulphur **
      9. Cloudless Sulphur **
      10. Longtailed Skipper **
      11. Monk Skipper **
      12. Giant Swallowtail View definition in a new window **
      13. Black Swallowtail View definition in a new window **
      14. Permedes Swallotail **
      15. Spicebush Swallowtail View definition in a new window **
      16. White Peacock View definition in a new window **
      17. Common Streaky-skipper **
      18. Ceranus Blue **
      19. Eastern Tiger Swallowtail View definition in a new window ***
      20. Little Glassywing ***
      21. Florida Duskywing ***
      22. Common Buckeye View definition in a new window ***
      23. Gray Hairstreak ***

With a total of 23 I think I can be quite happy - but the fun I had weighs much more than these numbers.
I also skipped on some, Woodnymphs and some additional skippers - which were difficult to get to. I will have
better luck on them late Fall and Winter, when Temperatures drop.

Cheers - and have fun!
