The day started out overcast and a bit cool, and we were occupied with other tasks until early afternoon -- but we did see a good variety, including:

1 Striped Hairstreak

1 Spicebush Swallowtail (F)

1 Black Swallowtail (F)

1 Summer Azure

1 Silver Spotted Skipper

1 Northern Broken Dash

1 Monarch

3 Cabbage White

The Striped Hairstreak was new to us in our garden, and is the third new species we've seen this year. It's the 48th species we've seen in this location since 2014.
