--0000000000006f0cb7065f1a380a Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Hi butterfliers, I got out of work today just early enough to catch the tail end of butterflying time on this pretty warm and sunny day. Liatris is finally blooming <https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/411852742> in the savannah, but the plants are remarkably small and not abundant. I was treated to some nice Pine Barren Gentians <https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/411852619> in bloom, though. Here is my meager list in the Croatan NF from about 4-5:30 pm: - Cloudless Sulphur - 1 - *Little Metalmark <https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/411852977>- 4 *- all nectaring on various yellow composites - Common Buckeye - 2 - one nectaring on Liatris - Ocola Skipper - 2 - nectaring on Blue Mistflower - Clouded Skipper - 1 Good butterflying, -- Ryan Chaffee (He/Him) Morehead City, NC --0000000000006f0cb7065f1a380a Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">Hi butterfliers,<div><br></div><div>I got out of work toda= y just early enough to catch the tail end of butterflying time on this pret= ty warm and sunny day. <a href=3D"https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/= 411852742" originalSrc=3D"https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/41185274= 2">Liatris is finally blooming</a> in the savannah, but the plants are rema= rkably small and not abundant.
