Flies That Don't Fly - Phantom Crane Flies
Переглядів 13814 днів тому
August 1, 2023 in Sudbury, Massachusetts. Phantom crane flies “have tiny wings, but their primary means of aerial flotation comes from their six long legs, some segments of which are expanded and filled with breathing tubes. The legs extend outward from the body like wheel spokes to catch the faintest breeze. Phantom crane flies appear to float through the air.” Whit Gibbons, The Tuscaloosa New...

    Orb weavers are very mesmerizing. I’ve had a few over the years show up and I would check on them everyday. A very large yellow garden specimen one year had a couple tiny males that would hang on the fringes of the gorgeous web. I enjoy the brown garden spiders too that take down their web every morning as well. Down south we typically see the orb weavers more in late summer, early autumn.

    How do you distinguish them as spring peeper tadpoles? I've seen many large writhing masses of black tadpoles in Southern Ontario July 2nd. The tadpoles appear to be black with gold specks, a flat belly and eyes at the top of their heads. They have a solid tail with translucent clear fins. I want to ID these.

    • @ChromatophoneNature
      @ChromatophoneNature 29 днів тому

      That’s a great question. I find identifying tadpoles to be very difficult and I’m not good at it. These were just so tiny that I assumed they were spring peepers, but I could be wrong.

    Nice! Too many small fish and not enough larger predators will stunt the growth of everything. My cousin's one pond is loaded with small bluegill and I toss them in the stream below the dam for the coons. I did the same to larger pond and it has a much heathier population.

Just curious how you got such an up close vantage point! 🐦 I am in Ontario and I am blessed to have cardinals visit daily. I love seeing the male do his proud little chirp to signal to his shyer half to come nibble at my sunflower seed buffet. Sometimes she needs encouragement and seeing him feed her mouth to mouth is so so sweet.
