Approximately 09:10 spotted this Male resting on a patch of Dogwood under a Maple tree occasionally opening his wings to sun. as I am writing this report at 9:50 he is resting with his wings closed. Sky mostly cloudy very low wind at time of initial observation. At 9:50 clouds are moving out, full sun and the wind is picking up. Forecast for high humidity and temperatures with storms expected later. The weather app on my phone says: Wind 22 km/h out of the SSW with gusts up to 37 km/h, temperature 23°C with 70% humidity and a dewpoint of 17°C.
He vacated his perch approximately 09:55. I will go check the milkweed patch. Was not able to see the fully opened wings to know if it was the same individual observed yesterday.
