We made our second early spring visit to Rockwoods Reservation to look for Grapevine Epimenis, but found none. However, our day was filled with lovelies. A pair of Northern Rough-winged Swallows greeted us as we drove in, as did a pair of Eastern Bluebirds. Louisiana Waterthrush were loudly calling in the creek. Yellow-throated Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Northern Parula and Blue-gray Gnatcatchers were singing overhead in the trees. Prairie Trillium, Bloodroot and Phlox was peeking out of the ground. A Grayish Jumping Spider surprised us when we took a closer peak at what was moving in some leaf litter. Zebra Swallowtails, Spring Azures, Duskwing butterflies and Orange wings were on the fly, to our delight.
