Swampwalk, social distancing day 115.

Went earlier this morning to keep cool. It was still muggy as heck, and there were some mosquitoes, but not as difficult as it would be if I went for walkies after 10am.

Saw one other pedestrian doing a morning jog, and we both had masks.

Maybe a half dozen squirrels, and panda the cat was relaxing comfortably in her yard. Small assortment of birds, mostly grackles, a handful of robins, one cardinal, two blue jays, a yellow finch sort of guy, no water birds or eagles.

One weird mushroom that I photographed badly enough to make it unidentifiable.

A few brown moths with yellow “eyespots”

Aforementioned mosquitoes were only problematic right by the water, so no frog or turtles seen, but I imagine they are eating quite well. Where are our purple martens to take down these biters?
