Serhiy, you post this first sighting annually, and it always gives me a lift, as it's a precursor of butterflies emerging over here.

Given that's the earliest date for the first sighting of this species on your list, Serhiy, I'm assuming you are having a highly advanced season in your part of the world this year?
