--00000000000023269b065fc3714d Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Hi butterfliers, Yesterday, I spent a day at the Croatan looking for leps and other wildlife. It was sunny all day and a little moist from rain last night, and cool, only reaching the high 60s. There was little nectar left, with the main sources being Asters in Craven and the remaining Blue Mistflower in Carteret. Here is my full list: Craven County, NC - Cloudless Sulphur - 1 - Pearl Crescent - 11 - Gulf Fritillary - 1 - Variegated Fritillary - 2 - Clouded Skipper - 1 - Ocola Skipper - 3 Carteret County, NC - Cloudless Sulphur - 1 - Little Metalmark - 1 - Common Buckeye - 6 - Common/White Checkered-Skipper - 1 - Ocola Skipper - 1 - Fiery Skipper - 3 Only 9 species and 32 individuals today. Afterwards, I checked out Patsy Pond, where I found no butterflies, but got lifer photos of an Eastern Fox Squirrel and Red-cockaded Woodpecker finally!
