Yesterday, God blessed us with a little more than an inch of rain! I was sitting in my office, reading, when I happened to glance out the window. Tiny winged insects were flying upward from the ground and into the sky. Apparently, the moisture had triggered their emergence. What were they? I ran outside with my camera and caught a few in my hand. The photos aren't great, but I did my best....
UPDATE...BAD NEWS! THOSE WINGED THINGS ARE TERMITES! Likely a native subterranean species. Ugh! I'm reading up now about them, including a FAQ posted online by AgriLife Extension. They were swarming yesterday....
James walked outside, too, and spotted this small toad in the Meadow. |
The raindrops on the lilies in the stock tank pond were pretty.... |
