This intersection was part of the Ironman bike route today. Many eastern tailed blues were doing some urban puddling on a wet rock near an office building where water was spraying from a fountain (rock at lower left). There were also quite a few eastern tailed blues in another dry area nearby. In keeping with the urban theme, there was a silver spotted skipper on a plant near a drainage ditch structure.
