Our friend Tom took us on a nice road in Citrus County, Florida to search for unusual butterflies. This Carolina Satyr, while neither rare nor unusual was a nice find for me.
It wasn’t long before Susan found this Echo Moth in a small pine.
One of our targets was this Juniper Hairstreak, it was feeding at lantana flowers across from a large patch of junipers.
Another great find was this Little metalmark sharing Spanish needles flowers with a bee.
An excellent find was this southern skipperling.
All-in-all we had about 20 butterflies, as well as a lot of interesting plants.
More tomorrow…
