Arizona Powdered-Skipper
Juniper Hairstreak
My wife and I worked Yaqui Well and Plum Canyon for our second straight day. Temps warmed up a bit to 72 degrees.
Juniper Hairstreaks were of the ‘Loki’ type. The Arizona Powdered Skipper is considered unusual for Anza-Borrego Desert State Park and is a ‘lifer’ for me.
