Least Skippers were everywhere! They were nectaring on Yellow and Orange Hawkweed and Vetch along with Common Ringlets. I also saw 20+ yellow swallowtails, two duskywings, four Eight-spotted Foresters, a White-striped Black Moth, many other interesting moths and insects, a Wood Frog and a baby Snapping Turtle which I rescued from the Road. I also saw one Blue and a couple of Skippers.
