Cloak.=20 I spent some time in a bog looking for Elfins with no luck. My only = netting was a brown moth but I thought there were some elfins flying = around. The bog was a great boot grabber and hard to get around very = far. Many of the sightings were the Lead Mines Rd end of the Liscomb River = Rd. near Glenelg.=20 Yellow-bellied Flycatchers were numerous in this area with 8-10 in the 5 = km section of roads I covered.
