Butterfliers,

Derb Carter and I explored Blue Ridge Parkway roadside and nearby meadows a=
round the Elk Mountain Overlook (~MP 274) yesterday and found the following=
butterflies. The highlight was a healthy colony of American Coppers.

Eastern Tiger Swallowtail 2
Clouded Sulphur 1
Orange Sulphur 1
American Copper 25
Eastern Tailed-Blue 1
Great Spangled Fritillary 2
Pearl Crescent 8
Peck's Skipper 2

Cheers,
Jeff
