Jeff Gaskin writes:\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Today, September 6, out at Goldstream Park,\u00a0Kirsten Mills and I saw 2 Paddle-tailed<\/strong> Darners <\/strong>and 1 Cardinal Meadowhawk<\/strong>.\u00a0 Also, there were a few Cabbage Whites<\/strong> and 1 Woodland Skipper.
\n<\/strong>
\nAt Pedder Bay we were surprised to see such a large number of Common Green Darners<\/strong>.\u00a0 In one small area there were at least 12 of them plus 2 or 3 more near the parking lot.\u00a0 The only other dragonfly we saw was an Eight-spotted Skimmer<\/strong>.\u00a0 Kirsten saw a Pine White<\/strong> when we were leaving along Rocky Point Road, near near Wild Arc.<\/p>\n

Aziza Cooper writes:\u00a0 Today, September 6, this fly was on a mushroom in Rainbow Park at Rainbow Road and McKenzie Avenue.<\/p>\n
