A buddy and myself drove out to a wildlife refuge and we parked the car at one stop and decided to walk down one of the trails to take a quick look at the Rio Grande River. Best idea we had!!! We saw one Sailor, numerous Mexican Bluewings, dozens and dozens of Zebra Longwings and about 20 Malachites within a small stretch of about 50 yards.

Now since we're in south Texas...it was extremely hot and humid and we were sweating from just being outside. I told him to stretch out his hand up to a Malachite that was perched on the edge of a leaf. It quickly climbed onto his finger and up his hand...enjoying the saltiness off his sweat no doubt!!!
