In October we spent a week in the Poconos in Pennsylvania. The main purpose was to see the Fall Colors and waterfalls by the Delaware River. This is the first of 7 posts covering this trip.

Tunkhannock Insects
Marc is so good at finding Preying Mantids. I did not know what the first one was. It was over an inch in size. Prompted by Rudi at Picpholio I went to bugguide.net and in craneflies I found one like it labeled Large Crane Flies (Tipulidae)

Our second visit to this preserve.
St Paul’s Henryville
This lovely church is down the road from where we stayed at Woodfield Manor in the Poconos.
We had another BBQ at Tobyhanna that day too.
Hungry Hill
Just down the road from where we stayed in a cabin at Woodfield Manor is Hungry Hill Memorial Historical Marker (hmdb.org)

The Nature Conservancy owns the Long Pond Preserve and Hauser Nature Center | TNC in PA. We visited the Hauser Nature Center twice to look at wildflowers and insects (in a later post).

Tobyhanna station – Wikipedia. I love old train stations. This one is in Pennsylvania.

Mill Pond in Tobyhanna
A charming place that we stopped at for a photo op. I looked it up online and discovered that they hold an Ice Festival there: Tobyhanna, PA – Pocono Ice Harvest (roadsideamerica.com)
