Welcome to the Daily Bucket. This is the place to record observations of any natural phenomena you might have encountered during your day to day activities. Tadpoles in the neighborhood pond, the arrival of Chimney Swift, an unexpected meteor shower, the last flowers of autumn. All potential contents of the bucket. These reports then become a valuable resource, every bug, bud, & bird - each note is a record that we can refer to in the future as we try to understand the patterns that are quietly unwinding around us.
You too!
Please contribute in the comments and please tell us where, to a reasonable approximation, you are.

We've had two straight nights of crickets. I can't recall hearing them recently until the other night. I don't think that it has been too cold, and while I might simply not have been hearing them, I suspect that this is the beginning of the mating season locally.

Now it is your turn
OK, now it is your turn. What are you seeing and hearing on the nature front, and roughly where are you seeing and hearing it?
