Well known population

Flock in formation making classic whooping sounds overhead.

Fruiting bodies growing directly out of Marchantia polymorpha colony on sandstone boulder near stream.

Q bicolor

Found sitting on the surface of the ground wrapped in a semi decomposed leaf. Host is lepidoptera pupa. A small reddish brown possibly silk moth pupa I believe.

Approximately 20 plants emerging. Close to blooming. Perhaps a few days after drop in temperature early next week.

On Rosa carolina

Surrounded by parvs in a seep with montanum common in the drier areas.

New location for this species at 685m. After finding the first one we were able to locate several dozen more in the surrounding bogs.

Tinka-tinka-tinka-tinka-tee

Rosette gall on plantain-leaved pussytoes. The single one that I opened appears to have a single chamber. Common on the barrens today, although I did not see them here in 2020 or 2021.
