Thousands of butterflies from Oct 16 to the 18th. My observation time: I was watching for 1 hours and 5 minutes.

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."
