Blue Metalmark
Spent about 3 hours here. 76 degrees. Sunny. Fairly breezy. 17 species. Blue Metalmarks are always a treat. But the find of the day was our first Coral Snake, which has a poem dedicated to it: “Red touches yellow, kills a fellow!” (Or feel free to use “yellow touches red — Soon you’ll be dead!”)
