A VISIT TO BRENEY COMMON.

WE WENT TO BRENEY COMMON ON SUNDAY HOPING FOR 
BLACK DARTER BUT DIDN'T SEE ANY. THERE HAS BEEN A 
LOT OF WORK DONE THERE IN THE PAST COUPLE OF 
YEARS SO LET'S HOPE WE HAVEN'T LOST THEM FOR GOOD.
WE DID SEE HALF A DOZEN PURPLE HAIRSTREAK.

  1. I called in there last August where we found 1 Black Darter and a few Common Hawker amongst the other commoner species. Looks like you had a good time there with the camera.
