Outdoorsie stuff, from Tindo
Hi all,
Since you have all been posting outdoorsie stuff, I figured I would too. Spent 5 hours walking in Alley Pond woods yesterday and came across many cool things, of which only a few would stand still long enough for me to take their pictures.
Bird list, no pics sorry.
I saw Yellow warblers, Redstart, Wood thrush, Common flicker, downy woodpecker, mourning dove, Cardinal, blue jays, Robins, catbird, house sparrow, chipping sparrow, Oriole, tufted titmouse, and two little birdies I could not identify. Not a bad day.
So, here are some pics.
Here are some discarded robin eggs, I think

Here are some flowers I have no ID for; Can anyone help out?


I took one and opened it up to find anthers and a stigma, so it is not a fungus. Royalorchids says Indian Pipe, I agree!
These two are the same.


This is some kind of Rubus sp. (raspberry)


Another type of Rubus sp.

Rubus odoratus



Solanum dulcamara

NOID Spider

Morus sp. (Mulberry, yummmm!)


Lonicera japonica, japanese honeysuckle.


Liriodendron tulipifera (tuliptree, fallen flower)

Impatiens capensis, Jewel Weed, or Spotted touch-me-not

And some fungus











Chipmunk, he was sooo cute.


Bufo fowleri, fowler's toad.


Blue Jays

Ants or wasps, or termites in a frenzy. Mating season perhaps.
