Gavilán Pecho Canela (Accipiter striatus)Observ.
leighaDescripción
I’m uncertain of this identification - perhaps this could be a male, light rough-legged hawk? They tried to obtain a small songbird from our feeder, missed (scaring the flock off), hung out in the oak for a bit before flying off.

I’d love to know if this is a native or invasive honeysuckle so I can help manage (if needed).

Unsure of this new friend in the lawn area. I planted a bunch of rudbeckia hirta in other places in the last few years - possible self-reseeded transplants?

leighaDescripción
In the fall, this little buddy wrapped themselves up in a Lily of the Valley leaf, snugged up tight against our west-facing picture window. No sign of Emergence yet, but it’s still early in the spring. We welcome identification of who this might be!

Arotes decorusObserv.
leighaDescripción
This fascinating little insect was found in our home - light green and black striped thorax, orange-red legs, translucent, shimmery wings, and very long black antennae with a single wide white band on each antenna. The wings are closed together (like damselflies) when not in flight. This is a very delicate-looking insect, not nearly as thick/robust as a wasp, and about the size of a dime.
