Hi all=3B

I was in the field with two birders from Michigan yesterday (June 20)=2C an=
d while they enjoyed a few life birds=2C I was very pleased to find and pho=
tograph a plant I had not seen before. =20

The plant is Golden Heather (Hudsonia ericoides)=2C and I found a number of=
 plants growing on a disturbed rock face at Polly's Cove=2C HRM=2C one of t=
he few localities for this species in NS=2C according to the Flora of NS.  =
Martine remembers seeing it there before.  Always nice to find a life plant=
=2C especially in my favourite NS habitat=2C the coastal barrens.

Here are two photos I took:

Last week I spotted a tiny moth inside the glass door leading to our screen=
ed-in balcony=2C and I managed a useable photo.  Jim Edsall had this to say=
:

"The small orange and dark moth looks like Pyrausta orphisalis =96 Orange M=
int Moth. This is not listed from NS in the Maritime Ecozone book but I not=
ice one report (from northern Cape Breton) on the Moth Photographers Group =
<http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/>=2C and it is reported from NB =
and Maine. Our =93micro moths=94 are still not known very well. "

I have placed a photo of the moth here:

A naturalist needs to look up=2C down=2C and sideways it seems=2C with a ca=
mera close to hand.

Cheers=2C
