Field Notes

Description:

The largest of the three was about 1/2 inch long.

Habitat:

Spotted on goldenrod bordering an open field and deciduous woods.

Notes:

The interesting thing about this spotting is seeing 3 JAB's riding together. Seeing 2 together is quite common. I haven't seen 3 before though.
