Anxiously awaiting Spring

The week and a half of 60 degree weather three weeks ago has me in a real funk, as since then it has been wet and in the 30's.  I was doing well controlling my cabin fever until now.  The warm spell got my hopes up only to be crushed!

Next Saturday is a trip to Yatesville Lake State Park in Louisa, Kentucky.  Very little has been done there as far as butterfly observation, so I'll be in uncharted waters.  But certainly they will be ahead of where the bflies are in southeast Ohio.  Hoping for West Virginia White, Elfins, and Azures.  Will probably be some early season Duskywings as well. 

Weather forecast currently is 40% chance of scattered thunderstorms and temps in the 60's.  Am hoping that precip number will go down as we get closer.  That is one of the challenges of doing a big butterfly year on the back of a motorcycle.  So much more exposed to the elements.
