Today is the last day of collections for our research project. It was quite cloudy and not much was seen in terms of insect life. We did see a spotted salamander at Bat Lake. The bog atBat lake is thick sphagnum with leather leaf, cranberry, tamarak, spruce and bog rosemary. It is a small area of bog that is surrounded by forest.
When driving down Hwy 60 to Kettle bog we had our largest moos jam. A female and her calf were walking very close to the side of the road. The tracks went up to the ditch however they were getting farther away when we arrived. They seamed to care very little about the large crowds of people nearby.
