Birding Tour Butterflies – Cloudless Sulphur, Painted Lady

While co-leading a WINGS Birding Tour through West Virginia over the last week we spent considerable time in mountain counties. Notable butterflies seen were my second ever Cloudless Sulphur in Tucker county along Bonner Mtn Rd. Other highlights were Pink-edged Sulphur and Appalachian Brown at Dolly Sods. Atlantic Fritillary, Aphrodite Fritillary and a Painted Lady were at Black Mtn along Rt 150 (Scenic Hwy) in Pocahontas County. Finally, a late Pepper and Salt Skipper near Oak Hill, WV.
