Following is the list of butterflies
that we found at BB Brown's Gardens on July 16, 2016. It was very hot
that day and we found a lot of butterflies such as a Great Purple Hairstreak,
White M Hairstreaks, Red-banded Hairstreaks, Viceroys, and Carolina Satyrs on
the woodland trail hanging out in the shade under the oak trees. We had a
total of 25 species.
