There's a large population of these cute little guys living on and around my front porch. They especially like the firewood that I store there. Have also seen them in my woods, around rotting wood. I don't know how well it comes across in these iPhone pix, but the tail has a very striking...

What is going on here? I first noticed these crates stacked up beside the road on 1st Avenue in Peaslee WMA about a week ago. From a distance they looked like those cardboard file boxes that are used to hold records. But upon approaching, they are full of bees! The buzzing was so loud it sounded...

It is really heavy out there today. The stringy things started falling from the oaks awhile ago but are still going strong, and the yellow pine pollen is everywhere. I rinsed it off my car with the hose and spent about an hour hiking around Belleplain. When I got back to the car it was covered...
