I left my phone behind today while kayaking/fishing. The pictures you could've been viewing otherwise would have been of a green heron, a large beaver, a whitetail deer, her fawn, and a great blue heron.
I also watched an injured broad-winged ...

My co-habitant, he lives behind the garden wall, 3' from my kitchen, and I'm sure is responsible for a decrease in the number of roaches and centipedes. However he likes to sit in each 1 gallon plant pot where I'm starting fruit trees, making a big ...

The tiniest toad I've ever seen. I named him Frank. This was taken seconds before he jumped from my hand and under someone's shoe. RIP Frank.

Another beautiful and fearsome wasp. A mud dauber maybe? It was investigating a black widow nest. I read that the wasp hunts for black widows.

The cryptic coloration (and excellent camouflage) vs. the flashy hindwings of an underwing moth. This is one of Pennsylvania's larger species, the Ilia underwing (Catocala ilia).

My Attacus caterpillars are almost 4" long, now. They've done a lot of growing on the past week! I think if I had reared them outdoors in Ailanthus, rather than indoors on Syringa (lilac), they would be significantly larger.

One of the local rehabbers brought in a young squirrel with maloccluded incisors. The bottom teeth have grown into the roof of her mouth and have caused a fistula. Dr. Ryan and I trimmed her teeth back as far as we could, humanely. Now the ...
