5-24 Black Swallowwort, Pale Beauty moth, Alternate-leaved Dogwood, White-winged March Flies

5-24 Highly invasive Balck Swallowwort, AKA Dog-strangle Vine, is opening its unique little flwoers.

The moth known as the Pale Beauty is airborne.

Alternate-leaved Dogwood, AKA Pagoda Tree, is now in flower.

Mating swarms of White-winged March Flies bob harmlessly over fields and along forest edges. Although somewhat annoying these flies don't bite. John
