Warm enough for tortoises

  

Wow, hard to believe, but air temperatures reached ~75°F (~24°C) on Bodega Head today.  And yesterday they were only ~5° lower than that.  

There have been lots of California Tortoiseshells (Nymphalis californica) flying by.  Here's one on Claytonia perfoliata.  It was probing the surface of the leaf with its proboscis, but I'm not sure if it was after moisture or salt?
