Goshen CMBO ~ Birds & Butterflies

I have always enjoyed going to the Goshen CMBO to see the birds and butterflies.  Normally, I visit there in June but this year time got away from me.  Today after work I was able to stop by.  Must say I was very disappointed to see how the grounds are overgrown and haven't been maintained.  This year there are no hummingbird feeders with Ruby-throated Hummingbirds flying into feed. And I saw very few butterflies as compared to prior years.  The Barn Swallows are sitting on nests.  At the pond the Pickerel Weed have Broad-winged Skippers as they do every year.  Also on the Pickerel Weed was a Smeared Dagger Moth caterpillar. The only other butterfly I saw was a Gray Hairstreak Butterfly.
