Marc and I did stopped ant the wildlife refuge and later at the Island Nature Trail in Chincoteague. There were hundreds of newly hatched little toads.

Insects
Bayard Cutting Arboretum Mix
Part two of our trip to Bayard Cutting Arboretum State Park. I wasn’t there at night. I turned the daytime photograph into a nighttime one for fun.
Pine Barrens Mix
Rick Cech led the group. He is an expert lepidopterist. I use his book, Butterflies of the East Coast: An Observer’s Guide: Cech, Rick, Tudor, Guy: Amazon.com, to identify butterflies.
Ward Pound Ridge Wildlife
I didn’t see many insects or birds. I heard a pileated woodpecker. I saw a few red tails, Eastern Phoebes, and tree swallows. I also spotted a bluebird and a few others. I also saw a spring azure that I couldn’t photograph and a pondhawk dragonfly.
Central Park September Insects
Not very many birds that afternoon in the park. I found a few insects to photograph. Second of 4 posts.
Governors Island Nature
There are lots of insects and flowers on Governors Island and Battery Park. We walked through Battery Park on the way to the bus home.
Beetle
I slightly re-edited my Japanese Beetle. Photograph originally created at Ward Pound Ridge, Westchester County, New York on July 6, 2013.
Greenbrook Dragonflies
A few odonates.
