Petersburg SGA - Monroe County

After hearing so much about Petersburg SGA, I decided that a visit was in order. So on June 6 I made the 1.5 hour drive to find out for myself. Not dissapointed! I made two stops at parking areas on Lulu Road.
In about 2 hours I recorded 16 species of butterflies. The most notable for me was my lifer Southern Cloudywing. Other nice finds included Northern Cloudywings, three species of swallowtails, Question Mark and Dreamy Duskywing.

Notice the white at the bend of the antenna and the large "windows" on the forewing.
