So, it’s January 1, and officially my Maryland Big Butterfly Year has begun. Question is, what will be my first sighting of the new year here in Maryland?
Odds on favorite is always Mourning Cloak, but this year I’ve a sneaking suspicion it will be orange or clouded sulphur. Long shot is a Polygonia, interrogationis or comma. Or maybe even cabbage white.
Your best guess?
