First post! A beautiful barred owl that’s been hanging around our university.

Oh hey, look a bug!

It's probably a bug.

In fact its a snow scorpion fly a strange little insect, distantly related to fleas. These bugs are active in much cooler temperatures then most other insects sometimes into the middle of winter if the weather is cool enough. They feed on moss and can be quite locally common if you find the right area. If they feel threatened they will launch themselves backwards and then play dead for a couple seconds. I watched them do this several times well i was photographing them. Very cute.

Anyways I'm gonna try to use this more often. hoping to do maybe a post a day for this week we shal see.

White bees!!
