Butterfliers,

It was a hot and mostly sunny day today so I conducted a couple of =
Orange County (NC, west of Durham) =E2=80=9CPollard=E2=80=9D butterfly =
surveys for the Carolinas Butterfly Monitoring Program. For those not =
familiar with Pollard survey protocols, each butterfly found within a =
5-meter forward radius as you walk is tallied individually to the level =
of 100% confidence, e.g. 15 Pipevine Swallowtails, 6 unidentified =
swallowtail, etc.

Today=E2=80=99s tally included a mind-boggling 941 Carolina Satyrs. And =
this is in a location that experienced severe flooding from Tropical =
Storm Chantal. It seems that satyrs =E2=80=9Cweathered=E2=80=9D the =
storm and flooding just fine.

Here are the totals:

Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, 6
Sleepy Orange, 7
Eastern Tailed-Blue, 3
Monarch, 1
Silvery Checkerspot, 2
Pearl Crescent, 1
Common Buckeye, 3
Hackberry Emperor, 2
Tawny Emperor, 1
Northern Pearly-eye, 4
Carolina Satyr, 941
Carolina/Gemmed Satyr. 16
Silver-spotted Skipper, 1
Clouded Skipper, 4
Crossline Skipper, 1
Little Glassywing, 2
Zabulon Skipper, 18

Good Butterflying!

Jeff
