97 degrees, sunny. Still seeing new species since we had over 12” of rain in 3.5 weeks but none in a week now. This is our second Queen in a few days, we’d not ever seen one here on the SE GA Coast previously and it looks so fresh I don’t think it could have migrated far! And just look at all that pollen on the Eastern Tiger!
