Backyard and Beyond

Starting out from Brooklyn, an amateur naturalist explores our world.

As John Burroughs said, “The place to observe nature is where you are.”

Bugs Out

An eruption of warmth on Saturday took the temperature into the high 70s (F). Everybody was out and about! Lots of firsts of the year sightings were noted.

And then, overnight, down went the mercury: Sunday’s high was 55, and not an arthropod was to be seen.

Except for a baby spider hiding in a daffodil.
