Flora and Fauna — pat morss

Posted on by patmorss

Progressing into autumn.

Perfect toadstool for the next passing toad.
Tar spot fungus on some of our maple trees is apparently not a health concern.
But invasive bittersweet may suffocate this covered spruce tree.
Late-born fawns are maturing before winter.
Eastern Garter Snake taking a defensive posture, crossing the road.
A Mourning Dove now understands why raptors like the view.
Time is getting short for the dahlias on Stacy Boulevard.
This dahlia is seemingly bearing fruit.
While two bees nearly shake feet, working on the same flower.
And Monarch Butterflies prepare for their amazing multi-generation migration to Mexico.

Students In Need of Cardboard for Design Project

Posted on by Nichole S.

I’m collecting cardboard for my students to build large cardboard boats. Are any local businesses willing to donate/set aside cardboard for us to use? The higher quality/thicker cardboard would be ideal. They will be building over the course of the next two weeks. Thank you in advance!

Update on Little Library at the Welcome Center

Posted on by Pat D

A few weeks ago, I mentioned here that the Little Library at the Welcome Center at Stage Fort Park could use some donations. It appears you all have stepped up to the task! The shelves now appear to be comfortingly re-filled. Thank you all! I love where we live.
