7100' elevation. Caterpillar that was feeding on the flowers of Sulphur Buckwheat (Eriogonum umbellatum) was reared to Butterfly. Caterpillars were in perfect sync to the blooming and waning of the flowers.

@tombaxter saw a number of typical Chalcedons here today. Might this one be an editha?

Can't tell what this is. INat suggests a sylvan hairstreak but it is lacking any orange underwing markings. Worn? Or perhaps something from the Spring Azure complex?

All three photos of the same individual. Although I did not find the ova, it appeared to be ovipositing in the moss and crevices on the bark near the base of this tree.

HEY we identified this as a tiger moth previously(and I have posted its caterpillar form as well) but I’m not sure that’s right when I check up on tiger moths! Let me know your thoughts.
