Cicadas are special this year

by Long EnoughJuly 19, 2024

Hey everyone! I just wanted to share some of the Cicadas that have emerged in Illinois. This year was special because of the two different broods that emerged. Apparently these two broods haven't co-emerged together in over 200 years!

*photos and videos are of the same brood*

Caught a bumblebee sleeping on the job

by SwissShepherdJuly 19, 2024Gave 6 Hours for Earth

Some bugs I've seen this year and last year. Thanks to miss Allison I learned that bees sometimes sleep in flowers and I recently caught one sleeping on a sunflower that just started opening. Been growing sunflowers for 3 years now. PS- Thank you for your service Maya and Alveus staff.
