Submitted by: Dogoszhi
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Landed on dead oak leaves, which it matched well. Poor quality snapshot but BAMONA doesn't include any prior sightings from this part of the Sandias. In Las Huertas Canyon, up out of the canyon bottom. Rugged hillside environment featuring junipers, pinyons, and oaks, with ponderosas in bottoms of drainages. Sunny, warm, steady light breeze.
