The Butterflies Continue

A perfect weather day today, and some butterflies were out. I came across the first Striped Hairstreaks of the season at McKeough CA. Needless to say, the hairstreaks were in incredible numbers where-ever there was milkweed beside woodlots.
Tawny Emperor was a nice find today.

Southern Hairstreaks are still out, but quite worn. They have been seen at a second location.
Some photos....
