Either one of three places:

1.) Mercer Botanical Gardens
2.) Cockrell Butterfly Center
3.) BBSP

Anyone interested? I'm thinking before it gets too hot, and during one of the weeks I'm home

depending on the date I would be interested.

Mercer is closer for me and would seem to have more easily-accessed subjects. Cockrell is going to be a bit tight on opportunities for a moderately-sized group as not all subjects will be stationary simultaneously and 95% of the space is out of macro range. Also a lot of tripods could get unwieldy in the narrow aisles. Not familiar enough w/BBSP and macro to offer an opinion either way.
