Of interest to you would be a sighting on April 8th at Selkirk Provincial Park near the village of Selkirk, Ontario (42.48.45 N, 79.57.30 W) by John Miles (miles@kwik.com) of a red admiral flying around the bird banding
station. He didn't state whether it was fresh looking or not.

Dear Royce, I have been seeing red admirals here, there was one in Lafayette, Indiana on April 8. But did it migrate here? I thought they lived here year-round. ?? Don't they overwinter here? Thanks, Liz

*Vanessa atalanta rubria* are perhaps our most frequently encountered butterfly today and for the past two weeks or more. Most males are defending perches in woods-edge sites. There is no apparent directional movement although they may be dispersing in all directions. More... |

week later they showed up here. More... |

Even today [April 25] we were reaching numbers of 40-50 per

plants, shrubs or trees they could find. Again the days were clear, sunny, calm and hot. More... |
