We continued our tour of less recently visited towns. All in all very nice weather, but a disappointing list of butterflies. We repeatedly failed to find skippers in spite of available flowers, particularly cow vetch. We even checked out a nursery with butterfly bushes and failed there as well. Our most common butterfly (and sometimes only butterfly) was cabbage white and we were lucky to find it where we did. Plainville Peck's Skipper - 1 Long Dash - 1 Cabbage White - 1 Rehoboth Cabbage White - 2 Swansea Cabbage White - 2 Dighton We stopped at a nursery with butterfly bushes. We found no butterflies, only two bumblebees! Cabbage White - 1, roadside Mansfield Cabbage White - 1 Foxborough Cabbage White - 1, I-495 Westborough Cabbage White - 1 Grafton Monarch - 1 Common Ringlet - 4 Peck's Skipper - 2 Long Dash - 1 Least Skipper - 1 Clouded Sulphur - 1 Cabbage White - 3 Baltimore Checkerspot caterpillars - several Garry and Annie Kessler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MassLep" group.
