@futurebird I’m assuming this is also a carpenter ant? This one was in Medford, MA.
Ants make a wonderful subject to film around. 🥰🐜✨

Here's the walk we took.

@shoozejim ooh, good point, I love the #MiddlesexFells! They have very great sequence of trails readily accessible via #MedfordMA and #MaldenMA - #HickeyPark has a #BlueBikes station and is about a mile's walk from a trailhead, and #OakGrove isn't that far if you're on the #OrangeLine - Thanks for the reminder, its a good prompt to compile a post of #BostonHikes in a future #BostonWeekend thread :)

Hickory buds? So pretty, I had to stop to admire! 😍🌿✨

Some #SpringPeepers were fooled to believe it was dusk during the dim light of the eclipse. Listen… 🐸✨🌘

The mosses are winning. 💚✨ No cold white stuff on the ground in February in New England.

Speaking of bird calls & songs, I managed to record a couple of calls with distinctive *trills* the other day in the Fells forest near the cascade (waterfall). Eastern Massachusetts.

Is it RedWingedBlackBird making burry alarm whistles?

Can anyone identify the bird?

❗️🔊 the waterfall is a bit noisy❗️

Found some of the Mesozoic dikes intruding the Proterozoic to Neoproterozoic bedrock here, but failed to get good images.
