    Gordon Hart writes:  Yesterday, Tuesday May 31, was a sunny day so there were lots of invertebrates about.  I saw at least five  Cedar Hairstreaks, a Cabbage White, a fresh Green Comma, and several, at least three, Western Spring Azures. There were many dragonflies flying, and I got one photo of a female darner perched.  Dr Rob Cannings writes that it is a youngish female California Darner Rhionaeschna californica – the most common darner here in spring.
