I was at Finzel on July 1, and there were so many Baltimore 
Checkerspots you practically had to push them out of the way to walk 
down the path. I'm amazed they're all gone less than two weeks later!

We stopped at Finzel Swamp but saw little of note save
Chestnut-sided Warbler and Northern Waterthrush. Had hoped for some
Baltimore Checkerspots but they were not flying (or is it too late
in the season now?)
