--0000000000000161dc0658074dda Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" I visited a few areas in Bennettsville, SC this afternoon, mostly Lake Wallace, the adjacent dove field, and a few patches of *Lantana* downtown. Finding butterflies in Marlboro County is challenging, but I did manage to piece together a list of 13 species, including a Common Sootywing, which is a county record. My list is below. Good butterflying.
