Washington Weekend Review

We took a quick trip to "the farm" this weekend. It was muddy and we didn't see much. I went to try to collect more C. scrutator grubs because I had seen more than I collected last time I was there. Only found two, and they were in Emma's sand box. I took a bottle full of Euthyrhynchus floridanus, (predatory stink bugs) that Michael had collected, to release them. I was able to snap this picture of one:
















Other than that, not much else. I flipped over logs, boards and anything else I could find. I did see more native phasmid pairs than I have seen in a while. Hope this rain stops so we can all get back out there. Hope to see everyone soon.
