> Hi Rob,
> There is a Vermont butterfly and moth listserve called VTLEPS. You can join
> it if you want at http://list.uvm.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=VTLEPS. In general, the
> wet June apparently hampered some butterfly species but not substantially,
> although there is no monitoring program. This is just from general
> observations. On the other hand, some butterflies have been on the high end.
> So we really can't generally say butterflies as a whole this year are down.

> There are several butterflies in Vermont that are considered tortoiseshells.
> You might be referring to one of my favorite species, Milbert's
> Tortoiseshell, which is quite common in Vermont. If you are able to take
> even mediocre digital photos of butterflies, many are easily identified and
> the above group is often very good about helping folks with identification
> and getting them hooked on butterflying.

> Additionally, you can get more information about Vermont butterflies from
> the recent Vermont Butterfly Survey report found here:
