Blast from the past Two-lined Leather-wing, Two-lined Cantharid - Atalantycha bilineata (syn. Ancistronycha bilineata, length 7.5 mm) Also posted at: <a href="https://bugguide.net/node/view/3274" rel="noreferrer nofollow">bugguide.net/node/view/3274</a> References - BugGuide <a href="https://bugguide.net/node/view/3114" rel="noreferrer nofollow">bugguide.net/node/view/3114</a> - Dillon and Dillon, A Manual of Common Beetles of Eastern North America (Row, Peterson, and Company, 1961), p. 264, plate 26(12) Photo taken with an early generation digital SLR, the Canon 10D (6MP sensor). If I was careful not to push the ISO, images from this camera were just fine! That Tamron macro lens was excellent--I only traded it in for a Canon later because it tended to get grit caught in the barrel as it extended. I believe this to be the first image of a living specimen of this species, at least the first one that was widely accessible. I identified it based on Dillon and Dillon's guide.
Leaf hider Putty Root - Aplectrum hyemale Foliage present mostly in winter and early spring, like the much more common Cranefly Orchid, Tipularia discolor. I cannot recall seeing so many Aplectrum in a clump like this previously.

Small stag beetle Platycerus quercus - Oak Stag Beetle (female, 9 mm)
Small stag beetle Platycerus quercus - Oak Stag Beetle (female, 9 mm) I found a female and a male under the loose bark of a rotting log, likely an oak. They were quite near each other. Males, apparently, are sometimes found on spring flowers. The Dillons tell us "Mandibles of male as long as head and with about six teeth near apex, in female much smaller". It was nice to find a male and a female together for comparison.
