Butterfly Days II
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.

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!
