This picture was snapped for the comforting sight of a weathered wooden fencepost and the identify the as yet unidentified plant, a pesticide survivor. But the more interesting element was the variety of insects on the plant, particularly beneath the second bloom from left. Looks a bit like a baby mantis in a hammock or cradle. - EW

Charles Marshburn, from the other side of the stream, sent a note, yesterday, June 20, 2018, asking if his neighbor's field had become "A Parking Lot for Old School Buses." After an intense interrogation, he sent a follow-up that the bus is an Adair County Road Department and that preliminary work on the Rollen Coomer Road Bridge is underway, inviting us to see for ourselves. This scene was captured after leaving. The bridge builders - the span is being built by the Adair County Road Department - were busy as beavers. Adair County Judge Executive Michael Lee Stephens said he expects the bridge, in Magistrate Sammy Baker's 3rd District, to be completed in as little as four to six weeks. - EW Comments | Permalink

You may have identified this one before. It's a beauty whether beneficial or not. These twins appeared to be either ready to open or were closing in their role illuminating orange day lilies. It's a hearty plant, having sustained a drenching of herbicide. If anyone can readily identify the plant, that would be great. - EW. Photo Wed 20 Jun 2018. Comments | Permalink
