Baby mantis that just emerged from egg case.
He was extremely aggressive. Striking twice and hissing at me and my dog.
It was farther from the river than I expected it to be (about 100 feet), considering how heavy it would be to drag.
Single bumble bee with a white butt, yellow on thorax, black abdomen.
I DON'T have a powerful zoom lens. Despite all the acreage at the refuge that is closed to the public, this guy chose to sit in a ponderosa along one of the most popular trails. There are already 8 other porcupine observations here, and they are scattered in time throughout the year.
