The weather has been saying "autumn." That autumn smell is in the air as well. With the cooler temperatures, reptiles may take to warming themselves on the asphalt of the Maple Highlands Trail. Keep an eye out for them if you're walking, running, riding along the trail and maybe help them off the pavement so they don't get run over. Don't forget to take pictures and add them to this project. Also, some of the blooming fall wildflowers (goldenrods, ironweed, wingstem, jewelweed) attract a plethora of insects and often they make good photographic subjects as they busily work the flower blossoms. Any bee photographs can be added to the Ohio Bee Atlas project as well as this project.
