If "confusing fall warblers" are hard to identify for novice birders,
imagine how inexperienced butterfly enthusiasts like us must feel
about the Skippers.
Hilton Pond Center for Piedmont Natural History finally delves into
the world of butterfly photography as we try to identify some of our
autumn butterflies. To view the current installment of "This Week at
Hilton Pond" for 22-31 October 2003, please click on

As always there are lists of all birds banded or recaptured, plus
close-ups of two birds of opposite seasons--Winter Wren and
Yellow-billed Cuckoo. There are also links to our detailed accounts
of two Rufous Hummingbirds banded during the period, one in Rock Hill
SC and the other in Todd NC.
Happy Nature Watching!
BILL
