    My wife Linda and I are just back from spending a day and a half on
    Brier Island. We did reasonably well regarding butterflies:<br>
    <ul>
      <li><b>Red Admiral</b>: Half a dozen or so around the wild flowers
        near the weather instruments at North Light</li>
      <li><b>Painted Lady: </b>One at North Light yesterday<br>
      </li>
      <li><b>Clouded Sulphur</b>: Maybe a dozen or more, pretty much
        everywhere. Dozens along the drive down Digby Neck and Long
        Island. Many of them were the green females.</li>
      <li><b>Orange Sulphur</b>: four or five at the Western Light area</li>
      <li><b>Cabbage Butterfly</b>: only two or three</li>
      <li><b>Mourning Cloak</b>: Half a dozen in various areas - quite
        fresh.</li>
      <li><b>Monarch</b>: two or three at the Western Light and one at
        the North Light this morning.</li>
    </ul>
    Oh yes - there were thousands of Northern Flickers, four
    simultaneous kettles of Broadwings totaling perhaps 800 individuals,
    lots of Merlins and Sharpies chasing the flickers around, and a
    scattering of other species. Many Gannets heading south.<br>
