Rondeau Butterfly Count, July 9th:
A friend and I participated in the Rondeau Butterfly Count again this year. In 4 hours of walking, we found 16 species and a total of 87 individual butterflies. The numbers were definitely down. Some leaking sap along the Tulip Trail attracted several species and individuals!
Dun Skipper
Little Wood-satyr (the most abundant species of the day)
Red Admiral, 2nd most abundant species.
Eastern Tiger Swallowtail getting minerals from the Visitor Centre parking lot.
