Location: Marsh Haven Nature Center on Hwy 49, three miles East of Waupun
Fond du Lac County

The LightCatchers Photo Club held their first (annual?) Family Day outing, at the Marsh Haven Nature Center today. Near 90 degrees, and muggy. Just enough butterflies to keep us running around in circles. At least one Monarch laying eggs, but as I looked for them all day, no caterpillars. I wasn't paying much attention to the Cabbage Whites, or the Clouded Sulphurs, and the five Common Wood Nymphs, and the ten unidentified Crescents, were not "user friendly" for photographers.
