Mariton: Butterflies

by Tim Burris, Preserve Manager

(Red Admiral by Carole Mebus)

There has been a lot of butterfly activity.  On a recent walk (without binoculars or a field guide) I saw several species.  Red Admirals, American Ladies, Spicebush Swallowtails, Mourning Cloaks, Sulphurs, and a (Northern?) Cloudywing were some of the butterflies I could identify.
