Broad Meadow Brook MAS, Worcester (7/31)

On Sunday we went over to BMB for another session of butterfly monitoring. Even though it was pretty hot, there wasn't much activity. We did find around 25 Broadwing Skippers in the Fragmities along the brook though.

Also, as we walked back Trioano towards Dunkirk St I spotted what I thought was a Groundhog crossing the path. He got to the brook and then turned around and headed back into the Fragmities. I didn't get a great look at it but it was too large to be a Muskrat and it had a bushy tail which eliminates Beaver. I just don't know if the sanctuary has ever had a report of a Groundhog. I'll have to ask around.
