As summer days shorten, the earliest winter birds arrive. Keen observers may witness small flocks of phalaropes swimming in dizzy circles in our quiet ponds. We may stroll by vibrant fields of yellow goldenbush and spot a colorful Argiope spider patiently waiting in the center of a neat, tidy web or an emerald-colored green lynx spider, hidden against the foliage, waiting to ambush a passing bee. Hit the trails with us and enjoy the wonder of nature’s seasonal transition! (Weather permitting. Wildlife is unpredictable. There is no guarantee of what you will see.)
