[MAIPC] SLF today in Blue Marsh

[Richard Gardner]

I was on trail today at Blue Marsh near mile 19 on the loop trail. I saw SLF on Ailanthus altissima, wild grape (not sure species), oriental bittersweet and box elder. The latter may be accidental even though I saw an egg mass without adults nearby or on the rest of the tree. Photos are posted at: https://www.facebook.com/Ailanthusresearch/.
All the SLF were found on trees in forest or hedgerows. None were found in the strip of trees in the open between Rt. 183 and Blue Marsh Lake.
I will be at the conference at Ashland Nature Center in northern Delaware on Oct. 30 if anyone wants to talk with me about what I am finding.
