Re Rob Hilton and Gene Scarpula's reports of Cloudless Sulphurs, I'm just back from the Outer Banks of North Carolina, where there's been a huge movement of this species for the past two weeks. When I samples numbers, I counted an average of 10-12 Cloudless Sulphurs an hour moving north along the beach, and they were everywhere in Avon where we were staying. The butterflying was generally better than the birding - found two nice southern species: several Twin-spot Skippers at the Bodie Island Light and several Phaon Cresents in a vacant lot in Avon. Other notables included Giant Swallowtails and Zarucco Duskywings, both common in Avon, lots of Swarthy Skippers, and few Palamedes Swallowtails. Birding was spottier. In fact, I saw nothing at all out of the ordinary. That being said, I can't think of a better place to study terns. The only missing species from the list of usual and unusual were Roseate, Arctic, and Sooty. Went out to the Gulf Stream with FONT on Aug. 10 and saw a truly extraordinary number of Band-rumped Storm Petrels - the official count was about 150 - including views of Band-rumpeds side by side with Wilson's (also very numerous), a first for me. But alas no rarities or lifers - missed the Bulwer's Petrel seen that weekend on another FONT trip. Did have a life mammal - Clymene Dolphin, a large pod of which surrounded our boat and rode the bow wave for a good long while. We also came upon a large (about 12 foot) Blue Shark, which the captain and mate insisted on catching. Too bad - the shark looked much more impressive in the water. Tom Stock
