Hi All,
Despite the weather being good and my advertising, there were only
two of us for the Carolina Butterfly Societies field trip to the
Francis Marion NF, Charleston Co., SC on 24 May 2008. We met at the
Seewee Visitors Center at 10 and spent the next 2 1/2 hours looking
for butterflies along several forest service roads including: I'On ,
Willow Hall, and 230. We had the following species and approximate
numbers.
E. Tiger Swallowtail-1
Spicebush Swallowtail-4
Palamedes Swallowtail-15
Cloudless Sulfur-1
Little Yellow-2
Mourning cloak-2 fresh
Common Buckeye-5
Pearl Crescent-6
Hackberry Emperor-4
Horace's Duskywing-6
Swarthy Skipper-1
Crossline Skipper-2
Delaware Skipper-1
Lace-winged Roadside-Skipper-1
Twin-spot Skipper-15
Cheers,
Dennis
