What a nice forum! (though it is eerily familiar)
I'd like to share one of my videos I made about the Mojave Desert here out West. A very bleak environment indeed. Spring however brings out beautiful flowers and a few nice butterflies. Leps featured in this movie: Chlosyne californica, Chlosyne acastus, Hyles lineata. Enjoy.

Welcome Clark, and thanks for the amusing comment under your photo, although I'm not sure why anyone would want to look like me It is amazing how butterflies can survive even under the harsh desert conditions, and also the beauty that can be seen there. Adam.

Actually, comparing the avatar photos I can see the similarity. I guess that if you really wanted to look like me you would cut your hair much shorter (but don't - you look fine as you are).
Adam.

Because of the first video on Insectnet.com, I dropped by Rock Corral in March of 2015 and collected corralensis, californica, and neumoegeni. Pretty good collecting that day but I never did see Indra

Pretty good collecting that day but I never did see Indra You just 'dropped by'? That's funny! Because it is a helluva remote location in the middle of nowhere. I have been there three times but only saw one Indra on the wing. It is much easier to find their caterpillars up in the rocks on the host plant. You gotta climb up a bit.

Well, I live in Colorado and was on my way to Los Angeles, so I turned off the highway and traveled down to the Apple Valley area. Thanks to your video I was able to collect these very interesting subspecies!
