We were the only ones from MBC to attend; there were about a dozen people all together meeting at 1:00 pm. Conditions were not great. It was cold (low 50s) but felt colder. No sun and some wind. Blake spotted one elfin, briefly, not sure of the species but he thought it might be a Hoary Elfin. We had no other butterfly sightings but we did see plenty of nature: shreds of what appeared to be hair from a deer, pheasant feathers, a wolf spider trap, oil beetles. Participants pointed out plants of interest, including Bird's Foot Violet and Yellow Wild Indigo shoots.
