Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I spotted this one on the side of the road. It may have been hit by a car as it appeared to have a damaged wing. It was acting very lethargic and stayed on my hand while I walked home. I set it down on the rail to photograph it. There have been other sightings in the area.
