I have been following Rick's blog this past season. He has undertaken a quest to find and identify 100 species of butterflies here in Maryland and surrounding locations.

Yes, their numbers are shrinking. Makes me sad. I have a Monarch Waystation and I usually see a few - but very few. :(

Nice blog Rick has there. Enjoyed that.

Thanks so much for the heads up. Tuning in right now and have posted info on the Mid Atlantic Forum
