Spring!

Jeremy Tatum writes:  According to my (astronomical) definition, Spring started here on March 19.  However, many butterfly-watchers believe that Spring starts when the first Orangetip butterfly is seen.

Jules Thomson reports having seen two Sara Orangetips on March 27, on the upper south facing slope of the main summit of Mount Douglas, just west and below the upper parking lot, in low shrub area with short spindly oak.
