Taking advantage of the 70-degree November day I made a quick check of a
couple of sites to see if anything was still flying. First stop Mill Creek
Greenway. With a chilly wade in the creek to a sunny patch of water willow,
I found several American Rubyspots busy (in a hurry?) mating and competing
for mates.
At a Percy Priest lake backwater the floating vegetation that was there 2
weeks ago had disappeared, evidently killed by the light frosts since then.
But I found a few odes in an open wet area next to the lake: Fragile
Forktail, Citrine Forktail females busy egg-laying, and one male Big Bluet.
I won't expect much to survive the colder weather due here later in the
week, if anything maybe some of the meadowhawks.
