Many babies schooling around presumed parent in shaded, shallow (1/2 to 1 ft deep) backwater swamp. Based on a quick dot-count, I estimate that there were as many as 2000-3000 baby bowfins in the school.

diohio1Description
Easy to see why the Rosy Maple moth has evolved to look like the samaras (winged fruit) of a maple tree. Adaptation at its best.
Moths came to the lights, and I threw in the samaras that had just fallen from a nearby maple.
