Coordinator notes: Nice record for the Question Mark....the status of this rather uncommonly observed butterfly varies between a definite resident and a temporary colonist. Southern Colorado experienced a good early season for some nymphalids such as the Buckeye. Did you see any of these at your site? The Arkansas River is a good corridor for fly-ins from the east and south. Mike
