4-11 Mourning Cloak Butterfly

 4-11

A Mourning Cloak butterfly was airborne today. These butterflies overwinter as adults and are one of the first species seen each spring. As they often precede flowers they feed on tree sap, scat and carrion.

Also seen, but not photographed, two Bats flying in bright 2 pm sunlight.
