In the shrinking sunlight of early October, life in Central Appalachia's forests and fields shows no signs of slowing down. A proliferation of asters and goldenrods fuels an insect feeding frenzy, at the same time ensuring that a late season eruption of seeds before the first frost will bring new life in the spring. From top: dog tooth lichen (Peltigera canina), also known as felt lichen, whose lobes are tipped by red apothecia ; large cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon), which dot wet mountain meadows and bogs; crooked-stemmed aster (Symphyotrichum prenanthoides); brown-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia triloba), which blooms later than black-eyed Susan and has three-lobed basal leaves; a bumblebee (Bombus) taking nectar from purple-stemmed aster (Symphyotrichum puniceum), also known as swamp aster; an American hoverfly (Eupeodes americanus) similarly drinking from purple-stemmed aster; blue wood aster (Symphyotrichum cordifolium); question mark butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis); and wrinkleleaf goldenrod (Solidago rugosa), also known as rough-leaf goldenrod.

Common Drone Fly (Eristalis tenax)
Family: Hoverfly Family (Syrphidae)
IUCN Conservation Status: Least Concern
Present and abundant on every continent except Antarctica, the Common Drone Fly is one of several hoverfly species that exhibit Batesian mimicry (a form of mimicry in which a harmless species has evolved to mimic the appearance of a toxic or otherwise dangerous species,) with its fluffy body and yellow-and-black striped abdomen giving it a bee-like appearance that deters most would-be predators despite lacking any real defensive abilities itself - upon closer inspection, it can be easily distinguished from a true bee owing to its thick body (bees have a narrow "waist" between their thorax and abdomen,) short, stubby antennae (bees generally have longer, flexible antennae) and wings (bees have 4 overlapping wings, while flies have only two wings.) Feeding on nectar and pollen, males of this species claim small flower-filled areas as their territories and guard them fiercely, hovering in mid-air to survey their surroundings and chasing off any similarly-sized insects that come close. Females travel between these territories searching for food and mates, and after mating they lay clutches of sticky oval-shaped eggs near bodies of water; the larvae, known as rat-tailed maggots, are aquatic and feed on detritus and bacteria, breathing air through an extremely long tail-like structure that extends from their abdomen. After reaching a suitable size and age the larvae crawl onto land and pupate in sheltered areas, and upon reaching adulthood they may live for several years, hibernating in rocky cracks or rotting wood to survive the winter.

Thick-legged Hoverfly (Syritta pipiens)
Distribution: Native to Europe, but found throughout Eurasia and North America.
Habitat: Occur wherever there are flowers, but most common around human habitations; common habitats include farmland, gardens and parks. Larvae are most common in rotting organic matter such as compost, manure, silage, and occasionally cadavers.
Diet: Larvae feed on decaying organic matter, while adults feed on many types of flowers. Their most common food plants are water-willow, white vervain, American pokeweed and candyleaf.
Description: The thick-legged hoverfly is called so due to their overdeveloped hind legs. These insects can sometimes be pests, as they occasionally feed on ornamentals, but are generally considered beneficial because they pollinate many common flower species. They also act as bio-indicators, especially to demonstrate the effects of environmental changes on pollinators.
Hoverflies are very agile fliers, and are often found hovering near flowers. This species, however, is very rarely found flying more than a metre above ground level. When they encounter another fly, males will sometimes circle around them; if they're male, this often results in the two males circling eachother, and if they're female, the male may dive at her at an acceleration of up to 500 centimetres per second squared in an attempt to initiate copulation.

ok sorry guys im skipping day 5 because i feel like im actually gonna puke (icky sicky) so im turning in early like super early
but let me share with you a thing i was thinking about from the wonka (2023) movie
so from the line where wonka has in his song "you've never had chocolate like this (the hoverchoc version)" (if you haven't/had heard it and want to check it out on youtube or fact check me exactly then it'll show up instantly) he has a line that goes like "these microscopic fleas" while describing the hoverflies meaning that they're quite small whether microscopic is an over exaggeration or it's the honest truth
if we're going off of every word of wonka being the truth, MAN MICROSCOPIC IS SMALL AS SHIT so how the fuck does it make people fly, i mean come on, even if it can "flap its wings a thousand times a second", being "no lie", how the FUCK does those tiny bastards make those people who are like a billion times bigger than them FLOAT like look at this shit (using an old drawing i did back in fucking i don't even know)
Tumblr media
even if you compared it to OLIMAR who's like tiny as (something the size of an american quarter) a hoverfly would still be miniscule compared to him! olimar is like the size of the actual chocolate itself! what the fuck?! like if this was in pikmin, i'd say "whoopee" because it makes a little more sense there just a tiny bit but like COME ON
i think the wonka movie may have actually been a work of fiction guys i don't think hoverflies are real

Excerpt from this story from This Is Not Cool With Peter Sinclair:
As the Clean Energy Transition progresses, one of the questions most often asked is “How much land will be necessary for development of solar energy?”
An ambitious build out of utility scale solar in Michigan would require about 2.5 percent of our 10 million acres of agricultural land. By comparison, today we devote between 7 and 10 percent of that land to corn ethanol production, which is a much more destructive and less efficient use of that land.
A recent study by Renew Wisconsin showed that, comparing the use of farmland for ethanol or solar, as measured in the potential for EV vs combustion vehicle mileage, showed that “…ethanol used in internal combustion engines requires about 85 times the amount of land to power the same amount of driving as solar-charged electric vehicles.”
For many farmers, clean energy development, solar and wind, represent a financial lifeline to diversify incomes, keep farms in the family and farmers on  the land as stewards.
Unlike solar, which protects farmers, and can even enhance farm soil, sprawl will destroy open land essentially forever.
Indeed, my experience is that opponents to solar and wind development across the Midwest almost always include real estate speculators, hungry to see farmers fail so that land can be scooped up for subdivisions, strip malls, gas stations, burger joints, and concrete.
American Farmland Trust, a non-profit with a mission to protect farmland, points out that unbridled sprawl development could result in “24.4 million acres of farmland and ranch land…paved over, fragmented, or compromised by 2040.”
The Trust has published “Smart Solar” guidelines to support, in their words, “three main, equally important goals: (1) accelerating solar energy development, (2) strengthening farm viability, and (3) safeguarding land well-suited for farming and ranching.”
Over and over again, in interviews, what I heard from farmers and landowners is that they did not want to sell their land, but that, by setting aside part of it for wind or solar development, they could keep it economically viable, and save it for future generations (in the case of wind, there is practically no effect on farm production).
A large body of research is emerging that shows the positive effects of solar projects in promoting soil health, supporting pollinators and beneficial insects, and expanding biodiversity. One such study recently came from Argonne National Lab, which followed two solar fields sited on farmland for four years, and found, among other benefits, “…increases in the abundance and diversity of native insect pollinators and agriculturally beneficial insects, which included honeybees, native bees, wasps, hornets, hoverflies, other flies, moths, butterflies and beetles. Flowers and flowering plant species increased as well. Total insect abundance tripled, while native bees showed a 20-fold increase in numbers.”

Thick-Legged Hoverfly - Syritta pipiens
I've seen many different mimicking insects during my time, but I've never seen one like this before. In fact, I've only seen this specie the one time, and never again after that. Hopefully the future will allow a revisit to this Fly, but all I'll be able to rely on is seeing a new individual perched on a flower or sunning itself on a leaf. This specie's common name is actually shared with another Hoverfly on this blog, that being Tropidia quadrata. It's this type of situation that should help to reinforce why scientific taxonomy and classification is so critical and the flaws in relying on common names. Taxonomy is king when it comes to organization, and helps to convey precise information related to biology in a near-universal manner. Case in point, there may be some differences between our two species of Thick-Legged Hoverflies. Nevertheless, common names have their place, especially if they are appropriately descriptive of an abundant insect. Given the look of this Fly's hindlegs, the name "Thick-Legged" is definitely appropriate. What a large femur (given the size of the other legs)! I'm not sure why the hindlegs of this Fly (and similar species) grow like that, but they may offer a benefit to launching themselves on takeoff or for a more propulsive running speed.
Make sure to observe those legs carefully (not in a crude manner) as they are critical to conclusively identify this pollinating Fly. The femur should be mostly black, with traces/spots of dark orange or yellow. As well, there is a crucial piece of information to account for behind the head: 2 pale-white triangle markings (see Picture 1). Otherwise, identifying this flower-visitor should be simple. What delayed me in uploading this specimen was the abdomen pattern being obscured by the pair of wings, which are strangely folded over the back rather than held out to the side at rest. When comparing against other North American flower Flies, the abdomen's color pattern can be a big help... just don't expect the underside's color to match. Finally, while I've gone on about finding this mimic near flowers, you may also have luck finding this specie near rotting vegetation, compost or near piles of dung. While the adults can take nectar and pollen, their larvae require moist, decaying matter to sustain them to pupation! The source of decomposition needs to be surveyed, and the larvae will also need to be laid inside it. As such, look and observe, but do not touch.
Pictures were taken on June 6, 2020 with a Google Pixel 4. Next week, we will begin by revisiting the family Tephritidae, better known as Fruit Flies.

Because technically Don t we have to change the names of half our airplanes and etc in the military?
Pretty much every helicopter, or maybe all of them, that's what we named after various Native American groups.
Those are badass though so I don't know if there's much of a push to rename the Apache attack helicopter, hope not at least that would be lame AF.
This tradition is believed to have been started in the 1940s before the Air Force was separate from the Army. Army General Hamilton Howze was tasked with establishing doctrine on where air assets should be employed, and how they would interact with those on the ground. He was not happy with the unremarkable sounding names given to the first two US helicopters; the Sikorsky R-4 Hoverfly and the Sikorsky H-5 Dragonfly.
Howze decided that the names given to helicopters should be related to their role or capabilities. He chose the name Sioux for the famous Bell H-13 light observation helicopter. The Sioux are a group of Native American tribes that fought and beat the 7th Cavalry Regiment at the Battle of Little Bighorn. _________
Not Native but I think I'd take this as a honorific, doesn't look like there's any kind of push to change it either.
Got a wild one here for ya Nunny.
Submitted anonymously.
Oh fun, we got rage against the white saviors hitting now then?
::::::Obligatory "white man's burden" reference here:::::: __________________
From coast to coast, wokeness is facing a rebellion.
Communities are fighting to reclaim their local heritage after a cancel-culture rampage in recent years eviscerated Native American images, nicknames and tributes at hundreds of schools nationwide. 
"We’re actually fighting an anti-American movement," Lisa Davis, a pro-Native American activist in Cedar City, Utah, told Fox News Digital. 
"The people trying to erase Native American culture are the same people trying to remove Thomas Jefferson and bashing American heritage." 
Davis and other Cedar City residents formed the grassroots organization VOICE (Voices of Iron County Education) after the school board voted to eliminate the high school’s traditional Redmen name and logo in 2019. 
"It was an honor to be called the Redmen," Julia Casuse, a "full-blooded Navajo" and graduate of Cedar City High School, told Fox News Digital. 
The silversmith said she tells visitors at the family’s shop, Navajo Crafting Co., "I’m a Redmen through and through."
The school's nickname is now the Reds.
Yet the irony of the new name is not lost on Cedar City residents. "We went from honoring centuries of American and Native American history to honoring communism," said Davis.
"The people trying to erase Native American culture are the same people trying to remove Thomas Jefferson and bashing American heritage." 
Eunice Davidson, a Dakota Sioux and president of the Native American Guardians Association (NAGA), told Fox News Digital, "It’s a terrible injustice to these communities," 
She and others claim the decisions to remove Native American images, nicknames and logos are made by local school boards, which are often under pressure from well-funded outside forces. 
"The decisions never have popular support," said Davidson, whose organization is based in North Dakota. 
"The taxpayer is being shunned and the school boards don’t care anymore. It’s Marxism and it’s taken over the school boards."
The grassroots group VOICE claims that 79% of local residents voted in support of the Redmen in a recent Change.org survey. 
Battles all across the country
Communities around the nation are waging similar battles. 
Activists in Killingly, Connecticut are fighting to reclaim the town's Redmen tradition after it was trampled by a statewide mandate to wipe out its own Native American legacy.
Cambridge, New York has taken its fight to save its beloved Indians tradition to the courts — after the Board of Regent announced its plan to trample Native American history across the Empire State. 
Local residents recently voted two new pro-Native American candidates onto its school board, including Iroquois Dillon Honyoust.  
"When you think about Native Americans, any icon that you see is about strength, honor, pride. Always a positive symbol to portray the strength of our heritage," Honyoust said in an interview with WAMC Northeast Public.  
The school board in Southern York County, Pennsylvania voted in January to allow Susquehannock High School to bring back its traditional Warriors name and logo. 
The decision came after five new school board members won elections in November by running on pro-Native American platforms. 
"This movement was about erasing Native American culture and I wasn’t about to stand for it," Jennifer Henkel, a mother of three children and one of the new school board members, told Fox News Digital previously.
The powerful group National Congress of American Indians (NCAI), based in Washington, D.C. has led the effort to erase Native American images in local communities around the nation. The organization is funded by benefactors such as George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, along with taxpayer dollars. 
Tumblr media
Gonna clip it here, but it's wild (also not unexpected) to see things like this at the end of the piece
Students at Wellpinit (Washington) High School voted to keep the school's Redskins mascot in March 2023, rejecting calls to erase history and heritage by local Democrat leaders.  The student body is 87% Native American, according to the Department of Education.
So much of this stuff is the 'offended on your behalf' nonsense we've been seeing for decades.
Gotta wonder if this kind of thing continues to gain momentum if the "I" will get dropped from BIPOC.
The NCAI "has tracked the retirement of more than 200 unsanctioned Native ‘themed’ mascots since 2019, and has supported legislation banning the use of these mascots in multiple states," the group said in a statement last year to Fox News Digital. 
The group is also largely responsible for the effort to force the NFL's franchise in Washington, D.C., to drop its traditional Redskins name and the familiar Native American face that appeared on the team's helmets.
"Widely consumed images of Native American stereotypes in commercial and educational environments slander, defame and vilify Native peoples," the NCAI claimed in a 2013 report that tilted public opinion against the Redskins and other Native American images. 
The report, however, offered a dubious narrative. Among other omissions, the report's lengthy history of the Redskins failed to mention Blackfoot Chief John Two Guns White Calf — even though he served as the face of the franchise for 48 years. 
He was one of the most influential Native Americans of the 20th century. He fought for Native American causes and counted President Calvin Coolidge among his sphere of influence. 
His proud facade appeared on Redskins helmets from 1972 until he was canceled in 2020. The NCAI scrubbed his name from its history of the franchise.
Tumblr media
Fox News Digital reached out to the NCAI for further comment. 
Communities across the nation, however, are fighting to preserve their Chief White Calf Redskins logo. 
Voters in Sandusky, Michigan recalled three school board members who voted to eliminate the Redskins. They've since elected three new school board members who ran on promises to reclaim the Redskins. 
Rick Spiegel, an activist in Sandusky who is leading the effort to reclaim the Redskins, said 2,100 registered voters in the town responded to a mail-in survey, with 90% supporting the traditional name. 
A survey at the high school revealed that 74% of students, and 53% of teachers, supported the Redskins.
Even so, the Sandusky High School teams are now known as the Wolves. 
"They're trying to erase or eradicate Native American history," said Spiegel. 
The Michigan communities of Camden, Pawpaw and Port Huron, he said, are fighting similar battles to preserve local traditions. 
The Red Mesa (Arizona) High School Redskins installed a new football field last year with a Redskins logo splashed across the 50-yard line. 
Students at Wellpinit (Washington) High School voted to keep the school's Redskins mascot in March 2023, rejecting calls to erase history and heritage by local Democrat leaders. 
The student body is 87% Native American, according to the Department of Education.
Kingston (Oklahoma) High School is also a majority Native American school that embraces the Redskins.
"The people that I’ve talked to — they have a sense of pride about our name, and about our mascot being the Redskins," Kingston athletic director Taylor Wiebener told KXII.com in 2020.
Students and residents of Donna, Texas, and McCloud, Oklahoma, have repeatedly voiced support for their Redskins identity, despite constant pressure, according to Native American activist Andre Billeaudeaux.
Casuse, the Navajo alumna of Cedar City High School in Utah, claims her allegiance to the Redmen began when she arrived at the school from a Navajo reservation in New Mexico in the 1960s.
She was feeling homesick while attending her first home football game.
"It gave me a sense of honor … It was a proud feeling for me, a sense of my heritage."
"All of a sudden I heard a very strong native beat. The school song," she said. "It stopped me in my tracks. It was wonderful hearing that sound and the beautiful Native music."
She suddenly felt at home, she said, adding that she served as a member of the pep club throughout high school. 
"It gave me a sense of honor. I was never embarrassed about it, never felt any tinge of prejudice. It was a proud feeling for me, a sense of my heritage."

The Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is a wildflower found all over Eurasia and North America. This plant attracts pollinators as well as hoverflies, whose larvae feed off insect pests like aphids. 
The leaves and flowers have a plethora of uses in herbal medicine in both European and Native American traditions, but surprisingly these claims are not well supported by medical research. The most famous use is to help heal wounds and there are some medical studies suggesting the crushed herb does have antibacterial properties. 
In these modern times it’s definitely safer to use sterile dressings and topical antibiotic creams on wounds, but our ancestors used yarrow since their options were limited.

@lucid-lupus​ submitted: some lovely bugs i've had the privilege of meeting recently! this was the first time i've seen mantids around here. every time they saw each other's faces they got angry, lol.
if i may ask, do you know what the fly's species is? it was very very large, and it kept following me and hovering in front of me. found in missouri!
Wow! Great collection of friends. I especially love the feisty mantids and the American giant millipede! So rare you get to see a mantid with its wings out so that’s fun. The fly is a yellowjacket hoverfly! Thank you for sharing all these pals they are beautiful and perfect
