9/17/15 Newman Hill


Going to be another hot one (mid 80's) so we got an early start and picked a route with lots of water.

Before we left the parking area a dragonfly landed on my shirt.


 I put my hand beside it and it climbed aboard.


I set it on a flower and we headed for the first pond


Gone to seed


 This section of the old rail bed leads to a beaver pond.


and another swim


These were very small and I didn't get sharp focus but here they are


Crown Vetch


 Can't resist the Queen Anne's Lace


A full load of pollen


Kelley did well and the hike was pleasant. Was glad we had started early because it was less comfortable at the end. !  1/2 hours
