Took another walk in the woods this mourning and boy was it quiet. Quiet is nice but not this quiet. Only managed to see or hear four birds, Northern Cardinal, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Carolina Wren and Ruby-crowned Kinglet. However, there was enough butterfly activity to keep me awake. Pearl Crescents (see photo right) were everywhere! I must have counted two dozen. Good numbers of Little Wood-Satyr were seen as were a few Giant Swallowtails and one Red-spotted Purple. Around the house I still have a couple of male Ruby-throated Hummingbirds with more cardinals, Chipping Sparrows, Mourning Doves and an occasional Eastern Bluebird.
