Hi all,
On 28 March 2007 18 members and guest of Ogeechee Audubon Society
and the Carolina Butterfly Society held a field trip to the Tillman Sand
Ridge HP, Jasper Co., SC. The weather was perfect but the Hog Plums were
past there peak and their were no other nectar sources; despite this I think
we all an enjoyable field trip and we succeeded is seeing 12 species of
butterflies.
