@ The Beach, October Edition

Nice day this past Sunday afternoon for hitting the beach – Beach 11, that is – at Presque Isle State Park, especially for late season butterflies:

      Always a bonus to see butterfly activity into fall. The Monarch and Sulphur appeared to be getting moisture from the damp sand. Also nice photographically, since it’s open on the beach and even if butterflies flit about, there’s no vegetation to get in the way.
