Up on the South ridge I've been photographing the butterflies in the car park of the Nature Center. I'd been told of a couple of meadows that are teeming with butterflies but are fair old walk uphill. I've been waiting for a slightly cooler day and as it was going to be in the low 80's today was the day. I walked up the steep gradient to the Observation Tower and sure enough the meadow was everything I'd been told. It was indeed teeming with Eastern Tiger Swallowtails, Zebra Swallowtails, Black Swallowtails and Spicebush Swallowtails.
