Spent about 30 minutes birding around the backyard and the
woods behind the house before going to work this morning
(11 April 2002).  Had 4 warblers: Yellow-rumped, Black-throated
Green, Yellow-throated and American Redstart --- the last
two were new for the year and yard lists.  Also added Chipping
Sparrow to the yard list and had another one of those sporadic
Purple Finch sightings.

Last evening (10 April 2002), I was running around the woods
and found several Horace's Duskywings (photographed a couple),
Falcate Orangetips and an Eastern Comma (also photographed).
(These are butterflies by the way :-)   Had a couple of one of
the larger species of May Beetles and some wild looking moths
around the lights last night.

Charlie, Allan, Reid or anyone else who might know... what are
these critters that look almost exactly like lighting bugs but
are larger and don't appear to have a light?  They've been flying
everywhere around the yard and woods for a couple of weeks now.
