Yesterday between 6 and 7 pm I counted 132 Nighthawks over nearby fields.
Today a Western Conifer Seed Bug (commonly called a Leaf-footed Bug) strolled along the fender of my car.
And Carrion Beetles (Nicrophorus tomentous) buried a dead Shrew in my yard. The shrew will serve as food for the beetle's larvae.
