Delayed posting of some lists from Labor Day weekend; none were really dedicated butterfly outings and the 9/2 list was just a couple hours in early morning so especially short, but did have better diversity with a tad more effort on the 9/1 list. Nice weather all three days except for high winds on 8/31.
