Field Notes

Description:

Mating pair of ETBs found on one of the sights I researched this summer. Seen late in the day (around 5:30.) One of my least favorite butterflies because of how many I had to count for my research. Nonetheless, I stopped to take this photo.

Habitat:

Grazed open prairie primarily dominated by fescue.
