Insects Lake Sommerville









In addition to birds, photography of insects has greatly enhanced my NEDs (nature exploration days)!!
Was pleased to find 6 examples of my favorite beetle yesterday!

Just back from a few days at Fort Davis. Stopped in at Sandia Wetlands (a nice stop just off I10) and Lake Balmorhea and had 9 species of shorebird. Killdeer, BN Stilt, Avocet, Wilson’s Phal, Spotted Sand, Western Sand (flyby), Upland Sand (several flyovers), Greater yellowlegs and my fav: fly right over the head 12…
Our group in High Island really enjoyed this hatch of termites in Smith Oaks!! Brought in many passerines. I guess we spent 30 minutes watching.
And here are some additional pix from Davis Mountains in August 2023.
If there’s Crane Flies it must be spring!
