Eastern Kingbird Family

This was a fantastic spot to view the building of the next, the babies and all of the hunting and caretaking.

It was located about 15 feet from the shore, so it was protected to an extent, and the placid water is a haven for damsel and dragon flies. The adult birds were almost always within sight as they hunted and returned.

At times, one would sit at the edge of the nest and spread it's wings to help shelter the young from the direct sun.

 

The Showdown

Twice the frog attempted to swallow the crawfish  by the head, and had to retreat.

After a 15 minute standoff, the frog took a position between the crawfish and the water it was trying to get to.

I'll never know who won, because this started a standoff between myself and my wife and the insects that were attacking us.

We lost as these two waited each other out.

North Country Butterflies

Event date and time
July 14, 2024 - 12:30 PM to July 14, 2025 - 3:00 PM
Event description

We will do a walk along the Tooley Pond Road, leaving the maintained trail occasionally, to see what butterflies might be about. Though the past is no guarantee of the future, last year around this time I found the largest number of species I’ve ever seen in the north country at this ordinary-looking site. Regardless, we’ll enjoy what we see, and will discuss their life histories, note the plants they lay their eggs on, which plants they get nectar from, and special adaptations that help them survive.
