Hi Derek and all
I had my first year ode today  May 31 but did not get a great look and no ph=
oto. It was not large. Steve Vines and I had both Hoary and Brown Elfins (2 e=
ach) along power line on Mackinnon L Rd near Sunnybrae Pictou Co. The Hoary m=
ight be new for the Glencoe square, 29NR 32, but I am not sure. Will be nice=
 when last year's data gets on the maps.    Azures also seen. It was mostly s=
unny here till noon.=20
Yesterday I had Red Admiral in town of Pictou and Black Swallowtail in Grant=
on and in my yard in Plymouth. Cabbage Whites seem widespread.  In general, I=
 find butterflies have been very uncommon so far this spring.  Last week was=
 quite hot in the county and I expected more to be about.=20
Cheers=20
