Recent Sightings

There isn't a day when you don't hear the song sparrow singing near the wetland.
In a sunny spot on the Loop Trail is where you are likely to spot this beautiful ebony jewelwing damselfly.
Today I saw this male common white-tail dragonfly in a puddle on Perimeter Road.
While the female common white-tail was in the meadow.
Almost hidden in the grass was the common buckeye butterfly.
A lover of clover is this female eastern tailed-blue butterfly.  She lays her eggs on clover.
A very small butterfly is this least skipper.
These forget-me-nots were growing in the stream.
The catalpa can be seen on the edge of the meadow as well as other places on the campus.
This sighting was where the Loop Trail joins Perimeter Road, and from the looks of that tail I would say it was a snapping turtle.
