NEW RANCH BUTTERFLY .... WHITE ANGLED-SULPHUR

WOW - I saw this large sulphur feeding at our Mexican Purple Sage and told Sherry it looked like a Southern Dogface and she should get some pictures. Well when I saw her pcitures I got all excited and ran outside with my camera to get some shots.

WhiteAngled-Sulphur - New ranch species and lifer for me.  BAMONA shows it as recorded in Kerr County, but there is no documented record in the list?

Sherry and I will each submit the records as sher got better pictures than me.

ANOTHER NEW RANCH BIRD....CANYON WREN

Amazing - this is our 4th new bird species this year.  First heard this bird giving its call - then saw it standing on the ranch trailer.
