Index of Subjects On walking the Salt Marsh Trail this morning, Painted Ladies were the most common species encountered and there must have been a 100 of them - remarkable!! I couldn't find an American Lady among them. Almost equally numerous were Cabbage Whites. These were the only leps encountered except for a single Clouded Sulphur. Certainly more butterflies than shorebirds, speaking of which, Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs, Black-bellied Plovers and Least Sandpipers were seen. Also noted were a few Common Terns, lots of DC Cormorants, 3-4 Osprey actively feeding, and an immature Bald Eagle.
