I went to Mount Umunuhm yesterday to look for birds and saw literally thousands of maybe about a dozen different species of butterflies. I had to drive 5 mph up the road because they were literally covering the entire road. I did see ash-throated flycatchers in a few spots, that was fun. Also a baby mountain lion, but no mama mountain lion (fortunately).
