Sleepy Duskywing
Erynnis brizo

Observation date: February 09, 2026
Submitted by: Robert Gorman
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Sleepy duskywing ? Early Record ? Many species running early this year it's getting good with enough rain for now and hopefully more on the way? 29 species this day in several hours and six miles of searching two sets of eyes is very helpful. Brett is very good at seeing everything and quickly getting an ID. Very fun to hike with.
