Lots of these along the Rim Trail at Buttermilk Park this week. They've spent the winter in their adult form, tucked beneath loose bark on decaying logs, and now have only a few weeks to revive, dine on a little oak sap and complete their amazing vertical courtship flights.
These insects tend to be territorial, so if you think you've scared one away, just wait a moment... he or she will be back!
