This plant was short, only a couple feet tall. Much shorter than the leggy New England asters. Flowers were also larger than NEA.

Hermit Thrush (Catharus guttatus)Observer

Sadly a window hit. Rufous tail. The beak seems too short for a thrush, but that’s my best guess.

Spiders (Order Araneae)Observer
joshleonardDescription
Very large! A full 5 inches from one side to the other. It was on the ceiling on the second floor in a cabin next to sea gull river. I was thinking wolf spider, but the iNaturalist algorithm decided dark fishing spider.
Its eyes shone in my head lamp.
