Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: At least two of these on the ridge fighting and chasing a third that might of been a female? The two would fight then rest or get nectar. Up near a area with electronics towers on it a bit on a high spot. Before the mountain really started to climb, this is as far as we went up.
