Dear All, May 27, 2008
Today at North Alton a patch of Goldthread (Coptis trifolia), that
has developed on a slate section of road that I leveled in 1984, was in
full bloom today. Large toothed aspen (Populus grandidentata) buds were
just barely showing leaves. In an open grassy roadway, a small Buprestid
(Anthaxia inornata (Randall)) was locally common on Dandelion flowers
and usually mating.
When I got home I found a tick of the usual size and mottled
coloration on my back and an hour or so after having decided there was
only one I found a second but smaller (~2-mm wide) and dark.
