A Terrific Butterfly Walk

Fyke  had a great group of folks for our annual butterfly walk today — and plenty of great looks at butterflies.

DSCN0105and Hummingbird Clear-winged Moths. 

Also had a Red-shouldered Hawk and lots of dragonflies and Ebony Jewel-winged Damselflies.

The walk is in memory of our friend Tom Burr, who loved nature — and loved helping people connect with nature.

Tom would have loved the walk, and added a few bad jokes of his own.

Several of us went on a tour of the Fell House afterward.

A list of butterflies that we saw follows (I think I am missing one or two…) Plus lots of pix with IDs, taken on the walk –help me out if I missed any IDs as well.
