With Clint Gibson, who was looking for Duke's Skippers; he texted me and I arrived a few hours later after work. Clint's work is supported by appropriate permits and follows established protocols. We iNatted along Rattlesnake Camp Road west of Three Bridges Road, and along Three Bridges Road north of Rattlesnake Camp Road. I did not record the weather, but it was sunny and around 91 degrees (probably with a "feels like" temperature of 94 degrees), with a light breeze. We left at 1727.

A solo visit to see what was around, and because I had not been out for eight days. Because of all the rain we have gotten the past few days -- and it is raining again as I write this -- I decided to avoid South Road and to stay on 3 Bridges Road and Gopher Road. As it turns out, I saw Julie Appleget on 3 Bridges Road and she said that she drove South Road earlier today. I did not stop along Rattlesnake Camp Road, so these records are solely from 3 Bridges Road (for its entire length) and Gopher Road. I saw very few nectar sources, so butterflies were pretty scarce; the only hotspot was a big clump of Tarflower, which attracted many swallowtails and one duskywing. I think I got two life moths if they get RGed. The weather at the start was sunny and 86 degrees ("feels like" 94) with a light breeze. I left at 1522, when the weather was sunny and 93 degrees ("feels like" 102) with a light breeze.
