As there were few dragonflies, butterflies were also scarce. Perhaps it was just the day as it was only sunny occasionally. However, I did see two of these butterflies, a few clouded sulphurs and a couple of cabbage whites. Something largish and orange flew past the pond, but i saw it fleetingly and out of the corner of my eye. Could have been a monarch, a few are being reported, or it might have been a viceroy.
