Part Three: by this time, the clouds had become rather dark and we are hearing thunder in the distance. we pick up our pace a little but still manage to see a few more things along the way. mr. croc spots a Painted Turtle laying eggs in the side of a Muskrat lodge mound. pbase.com we soon find ourselves walking in steadily increasing rain with about a 45 minute walk ahead of us. one of the ubiquitous deer of this section of forest, watches us from up ahead (probably laughing if deer could laugh), as we attempt to cover up my cameras and other gear as best as possible considering that we hadn't bothered to bring along the camera bag. pbase.com and yes, as is so often the case, the rain continued unabated until we were just a couple of minutes away from our parked vehicle.

Bug Teachur, I really do enjoy your stuff. When I get a chance I'm gonna show my son your pics and notes. I'm certain it will enlighten him. Or at least generate one of those guttural "Way Cool" sounds. When I clicked on your Ebony Jewelwing pics, somehow I was able to guess which one was male and female without reading the captions. It is either that you hit the right angle to make one look manly or feminine, or they actually are that way... This one just looks more delicate and pretty: pbase.com (Not meant as a sexist sort of statement.) Where as this one seems to say, "Hey bub, did you see that cutie over there posing on those blades of grass?" pbase.com He seems a little bit stronger. I know it probably just in my interpretation. I'm curious how you really can tell the difference. Are they cousins to the damsel fly? -Clapper P.S. I saw a few dragon flies while fishing at the creek the other day. I thought they were early. Would they typically still be in some sort of nymph stage? I remember as a kid being so afraid of dragon flies. So silly to think they bit and breathed fire... <g> <ng> P.P.S. Another random thought... Whenever I see dragon flies now I think of this song by Ziggy Marley from his CD that came out last year. Dragonfly everybody's worried about time but i just keep that shit off my mind people living on twenty four hour clocks but we're on a ride that never stops hey mister bee the world change but you remain the same and i wonder how you'll survive with the environment going down the drain hey miss dragonfly i see you look at me with your beautiful eyes you must be wondering what type of creature am i a dog looked at me and said ziggy why can't we trust man puss and me get together why can't you all just understand an old tree stood there silently listening to every word we said as a tear fell he cried what type of creature is man i said hey mister tree the world change but you remain the same and i wonder how you survive with the environment going down the drain hey miss butterfly I see you look at me with your beautiful eyes you must be wondering what kind of creature am i you must be wondering what kind of creature am i everybody's worried about time but i just keep that shit off my mind people living on twenty four hour clocks but we're on a ride yes we're on a ride we're on a ride that never stops hey mister bee the world change but you remain the same and i hope you'll survive with the environment going down the drain hey miss butterfly i see you look at me with your beautiful eyes you must be wondering what type of creature am i you must be wondering what type of creature is man
