I've been getting reports of Mourning Cloak (Nymphalis antiopa) and
Milbert's Tortoiseshell (Nymphalis milberti) from here in central Vermont.
Haven't seen any yet myself. But I have noticed The Infant (Archiearis
infans), the "first born" Geometrid moth with bright orange hind wings,
flying around. It's stunning. Here's a photo:
