Red Admirals on the Move


We had a neat 30 minutes today near our office. At the Coop gardens on Rt. 5 south of Norwich from 11am to 1130am we saw over 40 Red Admirals traveling fast to the north one after the other. There was a light breeze from the north and they appeared to go like heck anyhow. It was really amazing sight watching them stream northward. I ha...ve never seen this in Vermont. There is a movement afoot across the Northeast apparently. It has reached Vermont.

They have gotten up here to South Woodbury, too! One was already hanging around our nettle patch yesterday.
