Temperature up to 30 deg and sticky in the evenings. Bugs moderate in the forest but none on my deck. Worked at McGregor Lookout, across to SW lookout, then around Clifford Lake. Four Rose Pogonia on a floating log - seems to be the northernmost record in this part of the world (on iNaturalist).
Very hot throughout, with daytime up to 33 C. and nights not going below about 16 C. Heavy rain just before we arrived on 8th afternoon, so quite humid on 9th morning. Walked to the Aire Pellisier at the head of McGregor Lake, but was told by the attendant that i could not walk out on the dock. Saw a snipe probing mud along the river bank. Many flying ants in the cottage but we cannot find out where they are coming from.
