   Jeremy Tatum writes that he saw a Satyr Comma along Lochside Drive just north of Blenkinsop Lake on April 2.  On April 3, the moth shown below emerged, after being reared from a caterpillar found last year by Mike and Barb McGrenere in their Cordova Bay garden.  It is now flying around somewhere in the Blenkinsop Valley.
