Observation date: August 03, 2017
Submitted by: EricaLSF
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Found what I believe to be a male Lorquin's Admiral on an overcast and very humid day, resting on what I believe to be a Willow Tree. No other Lorquin's in sight. Watched him aggressively chase away birds and other insects.
