Aziza Cooper writes:   Yesterday, June 15, three species of butterfly were at Government House: two Western Tiger Swallowtails and one each of Lorquin’s Admiral and Cabbage White.   Jeremy Tatum writes:  You are doing better than me (or should that be I?)  I wandered around Uplands Park for an hour or so today, June 16, and I didn’t see any butterflies at all, not even a Cabbage White.   Culicids, however, were there in abundance.  How are other observers doing?
