7/9/13 – With the casual changes from sun to rain, the types of bugs we’ve been seeing have been oscillating on a daily basis. While the epic battle between the mosquito and the dragon fly continues..deer and black flies have been as persistent as ever to be as annoying as they can manage. But there are some friendlier and more interesting bugs that make the insects up here something to pay attention to. -Nicole

I went to go catch the sunset down at the landing the other warm evening and found these Canadian Tiger Swallowtail butterflies hanging out!

Though I’ve visited Sawbill since I was a kid..this was my first time seeing the turtle-esque Carrion Beetle!
