Observation notes: Appeared to be looking for a place to cocoon. Was not on any trees or leaves. Was in our fire pit that had sticks in it.
Status: Resident

Coordinator notes: Appears mature and probably was seeking a pupation site, as you say. They spin a cocoon in a tree or bush, not in the ground or, in this case, a fire pit. Hopefully was just passing through.
