They are both in Portage County and would be wonderful places to take pictures of Dragonflies. Triangle Lake has the frosted whiteface which is only known in Ohio from that State Nature Preserve. It is just down the road from Lake Hodgson.<BR/><BR/>TomTom Arbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919759721690261620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-82446562615429425382008-07-18T10:21:00.000-04:002008-07-18T10:21:00.000-04:00A friend sent me to your blog asying you are my so...A friend sent me to your blog asying you are my soul mate. After reading your profile, it actually echos mine with the exception of country music. <BR/>I prefer Oldies from the 50's music. I love photography and nature. She found you searching for pottery and we both believe the story of collecting the pottery cast off's would make a great novel.<BR/>www.newiJune.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-67140741856217993742008-07-17T14:06:00.000-04:002008-07-17T14:06:00.000-04:00Hello my friend knows a wonder these are your phot...Hello my friend knows a wonder these are your photos this week are fantastic***Fotografia e Luz***https://www.blogger.com/profile/04962489184156665955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-76696776404958643612008-07-17T13:38:00.000-04:002008-07-17T13:38:00.000-04:00Hi Fishing guy!Some nice pics today, we have those...Hi Fishing guy!<BR/>Some nice pics today, we have those thistles over here, we call them teasels, our goldfinch's have specially adapted beaks to extract the seed from them.

Hot and humid today here in Virginia. In fact I think it is a code orange day. I know some folks don't think we should use anything to fight those nasty Japanese beatles but we use a systemic on our maple trees and roses. You do one application in the spring and it last a year. Plus the maple trees were getting so tall that Jack on a six foot ladder still couldn't reach the top for spraying and you had to apply that spray several times.<BR/><BR/>I should have stock in this systemic stuff but I don't. You just make up a batch and pour it on the roots and it enters the roots and goes up the trunk to all parts of your plant or tree. It is made by Bayer.<BR/><BR/>The beetles still come to the tree or rose but soon as they land and take a bite they up and die. Sometimes I find 20 beetles on one large rose stem. Not the nicest sight but it saves the rosebush from being stripped. Here in Virginia the beatles are usually gone by the first of August.Whatever you do don't use those beatle bags. Then you have all the beatles in the neighborhood coming to your yard for a beatle orgy.Jack and Joannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11778598668660834055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-973593384239080192.post-58693234144078019032008-07-17T10:45:00.000-04:002008-07-17T10:45:00.000-04:00I also agree w/ shionge - explore the things aroun...I also agree w/ shionge - explore the things around you & get what you're looking for.
