Screech owls in boxes

We have two Owl Shacks and were lucky enough last Saturday (February 28) to see BOTH occupied by roosting screech owls! We're hoping a pair will choose one box and lay eggs. We love our eastern screech owls (Megascops asio)!

Goatweed leafwing on our land

Goatweed leafwing (Anaea andria), February 28, 2026, on our acreage northwest of town 

 Hey, I checked my iNaturalist list and discovered that I've seen this species twice here in our Wildscape! Thought it was a new one to me.

First daffodil

They are late in blooming. I’ll be lucky to get any this year, thanks to the drought and neighborhood deer.

UPDATE March 6, 2026 So this daffodil is our ONLY daffodil for 2026. James took a lovely photo of it (below). Every year's different!
