I participated in a Carolina Butterfly Society expedition to Ashe County, NC on July 13. Fortunately the rains held off long enough for folks to see some interesting stuff. Here's a sample from my photos:
The first is the Eyed Click Beetle,
Alaus oculatus.
The second set is an Azure species. I gave up trying to identify Azures in the field or photos years ago. It's a job for experts.
The final photo is a male Variable Dancer,
Argia fumipennis
.
