Caught within or on surface of shallow forested wetlands dominated by Quercus, Liquidambary, Nyssa, and Acer.
About 20 Caprella alaskana (Alaskan Skeleton Shrimp), the largest 1" tall, entered the tank housing baby Pinto Abalone at the Port Townsend Marine Science Center with the sea water flushing through the tank. So I won't call them "captive." They look like little stick insects doing a dance. I've only seen these once before at the marina, and those were beige. Both times they have been in small groups.
This plant was found in a very humid area growing naturally on a brick wall.
A esta especie también se le llama "mejorana", se puede utilizar como condimento en la comida, ademas de que es una excelente alternativa como planta de ornato.

One of the weirdest species I've found in Massachusetts.
Captured and banded with state and federal permits
Had a really nice time before lunch walking around this park in Hurst. Spotted lots of cool things! :)
This was growing one day in my Aunt's school garden when she taught at her old school. This stuff was kind of weird. It looked like it was frosted over or something. It was white and light tan. It was in a bad spot so couldn't get too many ID marks. This stuff was all cauliflower shaped. This fungus was a good size but wasn't the largest thing I saw. It was very weirdly textured. It was very interesting.
I didn't notice the insect face until looking at photos. Hackberry tree.
We spent the first day and evening at Richland Creek WMA -- I was expecting it to start pouring down rain at any moment... but! The weather cooperated. :)
I think we're in the right family? but would like input as to more exact ID.
First on left in first photo.
What a cool opportunity to black-light at Sabal Palms! It was really windy, but loads of bugs showed up nonetheless. What an incredible place.
Still working on ID's for these...
It's such fun to explore Sabal Palm Sanctuary -- I had special permission to access the property after hours to blacklight. So great. I walked around a bit before sunset to look for bugs. :)

Before the rains came, I walked a little around Randal Mill Park -- hundreds of robins and pine siskins (and some other birds).
There were actually four of them altogether. They eventually all got hold of it and traveled downriver together each holding on to part of the salmon.
There was basically what they call a swarm of these. Up to about 10cm in size
7 mm nose to body rear when straight. Found by dipping a jar of water from a small drainage ditch that contained standing water and vegetation.
