![]() | Photo 1 by: Max Ramey Comment: Scotland, 2025-07-05, South Hoffman Road (34.9612613, -79.5195536) - from pin to 3/4-mile down road - One individual netted and photographed. Feeding over the road in small swarms during the early evening (observed around 6:20-7:20). Mostly fairly high up (>20ft) but some came down lower. Mostly stuck to hunting over the road, but individuals would fly in and out of the surrounding longleaf habitat. 10-12 emeralds were seen on this stretch of road, and most were likely Treetop, but I could not confirm this. One very probable Coppery was also seen with one of these small feeding swarms. | ![]() | Photo 2 by: Max Ramey Comment: Scotland, 2025-07-05, South Hoffman Road (34.9612613, -79.5195536) - from pin to 3/4-mile down road - One individual netted and photographed.
