...and gobs of butterflies on scat. UGH!!!

...remember, I said I carry bottles of water with me...well, adding that to scat 're-activates' the stench and really attracts the butterflies - I also pour water on the dirt at times...since the ranch is so dry (doesn't rain much at all) butterflies will come quickly to scent of wet dirt.

There were gobs of Ceraunus Blues, Common Checkered Skippers, Turk's Cap Skippers, Bordered Patches and a Leafwing or two.

ps...I added red dots to point out all the butteflies. There's a blue dot near the middle...some type of black and white beetle.
