Monarch butterfly at MacSkimming Centre.
Beetle feeding on goldenrod at Trails End Field Centre at MacSkimming Centre.
On road. I moved it to the shoulder. Shell was approx 5 cm in diameter
Three baby snapping turtles were on a pedestrian / cyclist pathway.
In danger of getting stepped on or run-over by a bicycle.
This butterfly has a 5th small white dot, rather than 2 large on each side of 2 small. 4 eyelet circles, but as a Painted Lady, what's with the 5th white dot, albeit in the black, not ornage?
In man-made pond.
Freshly hatched from one of the 5 nests around our house. We only found one baby. Eggs were laid June 19 (reported in a separate observation).
This spring I was afraid our turtles had been eaten by a passing river otter.
