SUMMARY:Gum Swamp Road and Silver Bluff Audubon Sanctuary (Aiken Co\, SC)
DESCRIPTION:This is a Full CBS Walk to areas near Aiken\, South Carolina\, to look for the Texan Crescent\, Tawny Emperor\, Hackberry Emperor and other summer butterflies. On Saturday\, August 5\, we will drive along Gum Swamp Road and stop at various locations along the road to explore areas of interest (or wherever we see butterflies). On Sunday\, August 6\, we will explore areas within the Silver Bluff Audubon Center and Sanctuary that are generally not open to the public. The gate to the lakes (see below for the location) will be open on Sunday at dawn if you want to do some birding before our butterfly walk. \nWe will meet both days at the Kathwood Lakes parking area (GPS coordinates 33.33728\, -81.84345) of the Silver Bluff Audubon Center and Sanctuary. We will leave some cars at this location and consolidate the number of vehicles. Kathwood Lakes is located on Silver Bluff Road just before the paved road turns to dirt and approximately 200 yards after crossing the railroad tracks coming south. Kathwood Lakes is the name Google Maps uses for the bodies of water at this location. \nIf you are coming from the north\, Beech Island is the nearest place with bathrooms\, places to eat and gas stations. If coming from the south\, Jackson is the nearest place for these items. If coming from the east down Silver Bluff Road\, (SC 302)\, Aiken will be the last town on your way. Jackson will be to your south on SC 125 if you need to stop just prior to the meeting spot. \nNo restrooms are available along Gum Swamp Road. Please RSVP to John Demko at the email address below if you plan to participate. \nAdd to calendar

SUMMARY:Marie Poteat’s Property – Jamestown\, NC
DESCRIPTION:The Triad Chapter of CBS will hold a butterfly walk on Saturday\, August 12 to Marie Poteat’s property in Jamestown\, NC. Of all the triad butterfly reports this year\, Maries by far have had the most butterflies. In large part\, this is because Marie has spent years reintroducing caterpillar host plants and butterfly nectar plants on what was once her family’s 70-acre+ working farm. For those interested in Monarch butterflies\, she has more than 25 species of the milkweed host plants. This hard work has paid off. She probably has more butterfly species visiting and breeding on her property than any other location in Guilford County. \nMarie said in an email: \nLast year I had the most species of butterflies in mid August so I think we should plan for August 12 with August 19 as the second option depending on weather. Of course there is no guarantee of what we see\, but there should be a lot of swallowtails\, skippers\, and some hairstreaks maybe. \nI think the start time should be 9:30 so that we can have from 10:00-12:00 to look for butterflies before the main heat of the day. \nParking will be at 1111 Bales Chapel in Jamestown. \nNote that there are no rest rooms available; be sure to make a “pit stop” in town before you continue to the Poteat property. In addition\, you will have to bring everything you need including water\, a snack\, a folding chair\, a butterfly field guide\, and\, if you have them\, binoculars and a camera. \nMarie is limiting the number of participants to about 10 – 12 people. If you want to join in on this butterfly walk\, you MUST register by contacting Marie at the email address below. \nSummary: Butterfly walk\, 8-12-23\, Marie Poteat Property\, 1111 Bales Chapel\, Jamestown\, NC beginning at 9:30 a.m. Limited to 10-12 participants. YOU MUST REGISTER IN ADVANCE IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE! \n

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Etheredge Mill Pond – Aaron’s Skipper (North\, SC)
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED – After numerous recent scouting visits\, no Aaron’s Skippers could be found. Consequently\, this year’s walk has been CANCELLED! Here’s to hoping they’ll be back next year.\nThe Midlands Chapter of CBS (Carolina Butterfly Society) will hold a butterfly walk at Etheredge Mill Pond near North\, South Carolina\, to look for Aaron’s Skipper fall brood and other late-season butterflies. Please note that this is a Tuesday walk. Locations of interest will be around the mill pond. At times\, we will be walking along the fairly wide shoulders of paved roads. \nMeet on the east side of Etheredge Mill Pond at the corner of Highway 178 / North Road and Highway 172 / Redmond Mill Road (GPS coordinates 33.62726\, -81.04808) in the open area on the north side of Highway 178 and just to the west of Highway 172. \nNo restrooms are available on the property. Please RSVP to John Demko at the email address below if you plan to participate.
