I was out over the weekend to check on things, to mow and to look at butterflies. All three were successful.
I've always tried to keep the main entrances looking somewhat presentable. It's partly esthetic, partly practical.
You don't want the place to look neglected. It's a pain to walk in through tall grass and sandspurs.
Ceraunus blue butterflies are still plentiful I had 146 on Saturday in the north tract, down from 318 in early July, but still pretty impressive. I sent my friends at Archbold some info on what's happening. I don't know how significant it is, but it's always good to share information, especially information that they would never capture because they have other work to do.
