Location: Muralt Bluff Prairie State Natural Area
Green County
The Juniper Hairstreaks were all in the same Red Cedar about 25 ft. the air. I watched the three males sparring in the tree for about ten minutes and got good looks at them with binoculars during their short rest periods. Nearly two hours later I came back and checked and they were still at it! 1:30–3:30 pm.
