In our ongoing search for milkweed species this summer, Mark Rose and I spent much of the day slowly driving along rural roads in Guilford County, NC, on Tuesday, 8/24/10. This time we were in the western part of the county near the border with Forsyth County, mostly between High Point and I-40, plus a brief mid afternoon run to scout the far northwestern corner. The weather was very pleasant for us humans, mostly cloudy with brief periods of sun, temperatures in the upper 70s and low 80s, and a refreshing breeze. We were in the field for about 5.5 hours. As usual, we noted the butterflies we saw.
