Glad you stopped by! I guess joining the Nature Blog Network worked!

Sycamore canyon is one of my favorite places in the world. I go to southeast Arizona every August. I go specifically for the bugs. They are amazing! They are part of the diversity and splendor of the Sonoran Desert. I can't wait for spring and the return of the plant and insect life here to the Midwest.Doug Taronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08537881828742937167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337291898556479782.post-20376919581787969932007-09-19T11:18:00.000-07:002007-09-19T11:18:00.000-07:00Folks,Bugs are beautiful!

Chris and I were pleasently surprised not to see any bugs all spring (and it starts early here). We were used to having gnats and misquitoes buzzing around at the first sign of warm weather, but luckily, we were able to spend many warm nights lounging in the hammock before they turned up :).Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05621806170502626490noreply@blogger.com
