I heard from someone who has looked for Brown Elfin at Occoneechee a few ti=
mes without success and wanted advice. I have found the best area is the Br=
own Elfin Knob Trail which begins from the gravel road just uphill from the=
ranger residence. When it opens up in just 50 yards or so on top of the =
small hill spend time walkimg along the left edge of the open area. Henry's=
Elfin are dependable on the laurel leaves along the trail just when you re=
ach the open area.

I also misreported the Azures as Spring when they were all likely Summer.
