This afternoon I ran over to Estero Llano Grande State Park in Weslaco to check out the crucita. There I ran into another butterflier who will remain nameless except to say that he hails from a far northern friendly land and we had a disagreement as to the ID of the following butterflies. One of us said Fiery Skipper while the other argued that they were Sachems. What's your call?
Meanwhile there was a nice Purple-washed Skipper that distacted us and interrupted the impending fisitcuffs.
Yesterday I ran over to the National Butterfly Center south of Mission hoping to find some good stuff. It was a bit disappointing. The best thing I saw was this Statira Sulphur.
