habitat ~ 04/30/09 ~ Point Lobos State Natural Reserve
We don't go hiking here as much as we'd like because of the crowds. It's so beautiful here, it's no wonder it's so popular. Too bad it's on the list of State Parks that may be closed to the public in the coming year.
Possibly related to the variable checkerspot?
ps - Possible ID is elegant sheep moth (Hemileuca eglanterina).

I love finding these and have seen them at Garland Ranch before.

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
