5-28
Among the moths flying last night was a Purple Plagodis. The larval host for this species is Ash and the inevitable arrival of the Emerald Ash Borer may spell its doom. Also flying were an Eyed Baileya, a False Crocus Geometer, a Rosy Maple moth, a Luna and a Black Bit moth whose larvae feed on Locust.
Along the river a rather regal looking Red-tailed Hawk clutching a huge American Toad perched in an oak tree eyeing me as if I might covet its prize!
