Was having morning coffee and noticed a couple butterflies, stepped out into the yard and saw a steady stream of them overhead, it was pretty amazing My observation time: I was watching for 0 hours and 45 minutes don't have a count of numbers but I'm sure it was several hundred

Editor's Note: As reported by the Statesman.com website, "About every decade or so there’s an outbreak of snouts in Central Texas, according to Mike Quinn, president of the Austin Butterfly Forum. 'The weather pattern triggers these outbreaks — the drought followed by heavy rains,' said Quinn, who has compiled a site dedicated to the butterfly."
