Took a walk with about 21 people on Sunday, July 13 through the Crowell
Preserve in Duxbury.

This is a reclaimed cranberry bog system. Lots of wetlands vegetation,
including button bush, pepperbush, Spiraea tomentosa, and Spiraea alba.
There was a pretty large field of milkweed that was all going to seed. I
imagine it must have been pretty good about 1-2 weeks ago.

Lots of insects to see, but butterfly sightings were sparse. We managed to
find an Appalachian brown, which might be of note. I hadn't seen one nearby
before.

3 dun skippers
1 Appalachian brown
