I have been paying particular attention to our butterfly bushes and other
flowers of late in the hopes of seeing some late season emigrant
butterflies. I was rewarded this past weekend with one Long-tailed Skipper,
two Fiery Skippers and one Ocala Skipper. The Fiery and Ocala Skippers were
firsts for my yard in southern Carroll County.
