Saw this turkey swimming in Lake Ontario among 0.5m waves. It was moving slowly, but kept it's head above water and looked like it reached the shore safely.

brewbooksDescription
I was mighty pleased to see the Common Eastern Firefly (Photinus pyralis) again. It’s a remarkable insect that I grew up with but it’s range doesn’t extend to my current home near Seattle.

tysmithDescription
Finally, something that gets me excited about Bullfrogs again...
I stopped for a Spring Peeper, and then noticed a yellow object with a red reflection, a ways down the road. I assumed it was some trash, and then realized as I got closer that reflection was an eye shine.

Red-winged Blackbird
near Stewardson, Illinois
1 June 1989
I'm posting this record just for the general interest of a Red-winged Blackbird with one white wing. Whether a partial albino, or a partial leucistic bird, I'm not sure. A local farmer told my wife and me that this bird had been on his farm for three summers. The bird left in the fall with the other Red-wingeds and came back in the spring. I watched it for about 30 minutes. It vocalized like any other Red-winged BB and interacted with other Red-wingeds normally. It was pretty flashy to see in flight, however. Three shots posted. These images scanned from old color slides.
