Birding Alaska

Dorcas Copper Lycaena dorcas, Tern Lake, Kenai Peninsula, 8 July 2009.

The birding was a bit slow today, but the butterflies picked up the slack.  I photographed these Dorcas Coppers at Tern Lake on the Kenai Peninsula this evening.  There were several cavorting along the lake edge at the main pull-out on the Sterling Highway.
