Trey: The orange butterfly is a Pearl Crescent, while the gray one is a Tropical Checkered Skipper. Speaking of interesting butterflies, I saw a Question Mark last week in the Big Cypress, a bit south of its normal range.

There are signs of migration as Bill Sadowski. Around 5pm I ran into a nice
: size flock of Prairies (12-15) and Parulas (10-12). There were also several
: Indigo and Painted Buntings hiding near the feeders. Catbird were plentiful as
: were Palm Warblers. I also saw a couple of Yellow Rumps and one Spot-breasted
: Oriole was singing nearby.


:

I went by Cutler wetland looking for gulls and whatever else of interest
: showed up. No gulls were present, but plenty of other birds to investigate. The
: Black-necked Stilts are there and noisy also seen:

:

: Greater & Lesser Yellow Legs

: Stilt Sandpipers (3)

: Dowitchers (2)

: Least Sandpipers (12-15)

: Spotted Sandpiper (1)

: and your typical waders...
