We heard 3 types of crickets, each with a different sound:
Ground cricket
Bush cricket-sharp almost metallic sound (Red faced bush crickets, only Males sing)
Tree cricket (and yes, a video, complete with sound and the male vibrating his wings)
There is a great Rivers & Revolutions School Group in Concord, which also goes along on similar walks. Today's walk was open for families and a few kids came along. It's always fun to watch kids as they discover things about nature!
Evening Primrose is a pioneer in formerly cultivated field. Timothy grass, little lanterns of gold!!
