CW: shiny copper coloured wasp on leaf
I was talking about #wasps (etc) with @enriquericos + @NatureMC here's a cool local one not huge but good size- maybe close to 1 inch/couple cm long? but very narrow. I *think* this is the same kind I saw earlier in the year laying eggs in cocoon of the Forest Tent Caterpillars (of which we had a major explosion this year- did I ever share videos?) if so, this should have been a great year for them! #insects #Alberta #BorealForest #inverts #nature #photography

CW: colourful bee mimic fly
This handsome person was on a willow support in a pea garden bed. At first I thought it was a much more common Tachinid fly, but this is new to me: Mesembrina decipiens (I think, I'll see if I get any input on iNat), which is in the housefly family -though not a housefly, and clearly a bee mimic. I'm not sure what the adult feeds on (just saw the one, and it wasn't feeding) but it seems larvae likely develop in dung.

Canada's boreal forest is an ecological treasure of inestimable value. It is also all too easy to forget.

Up until approximately a decade ago, most boreal forest lightening strikes fell on damp ground, usually from recent snow melt. Climate change has turned the upper half of North America into a giant tinder box.

Finally got through the 2nd day of the week for iNaturalist observations. I still have over 3,000 photos to process.
This number will change, of course, as identifiers catch up. But as of now, I added 46 new-to-me species during the week!
