On outside of front porch screen; has been cruising this screen for a month at least. The porch faces north, gets no direct sun, but is protected by flanking walls of house. It’s been quite tolerant of conversations & activities on the porch, allowing me to get quite close to take pictures outside

It was found in duff mixed w/ sandy soil where small tractor had been moving logs left from tree work. Apparently, it was mashed under the tread. I’ve found this species here before, but not in last couple of years.

Found singing on my kitchen floor; picked it up & released it outside. It may be back when nights get cooler again.
