Spring is progressing along. Heard the first baby Robin cries of the season. I love this time of the year.

Check this out! This is the biggest cecropia moth I've seen measured close to 8" wide.

I have a female Praying Mantis named Bugaboo that would fall over if she saw that. Nice, very nice.

Busy couple of days for the critters of my house! First, I found this beautiful, huge cecropia moth yesterday morning.

Last night a Chimney Swift got stuck in our chimney pipe and we had to take the whole thing apart to get it out.

This morning I discovered a stunning garter exploring the engine of my new car. It showed me how it can get in and out of the interior of my car no problem. Thanks for the tip, little buddy.

This afternoon, I discovered the woodchucks have moved back in. Phew. Summer in New England!

I think I should rename my bird bath to the Bee Bath. A guy a couple blocks over keeps bees. They come to my place for a drink. Saved one of the little buggers(no pun intended) from drowning.

Our honey bees need all the help they can get.
