Friday: south of Forest Lake - a flock of about 50 snow buntings. When I first caught sight of them, they were landing by the edge of a large puddle. I thought they were peeps.
Saturday: beautiful warm day. The bugs were out and the Cedar Waxwings were hawking above the lake and above the treetops. They were also gleening insects in an oak tree. I saw one or two mourning cloaks. These butterflies will winter over as adults and are often the last seen in the fall and the first to venture out in the spring.
