Sighting for August 13, 2017

Mary Lynn Delfino

Springfield Bog Metro Park
Summit County, OH

Did the park loop from 2:00-3:45 p.m. Temps in the high 70s. I could have sworn I saw a Southern Dogface or Cloudless Sulphur flying high and fast around the perimeter of the property, but I couldn’t get close enough for an ID or a picture. Both would be rare for this area.
