On Saturday, July 23, I visited Phillip's Farm, a Latah county park a few miles north of Moscow. It's a local hot spot for birds and there were plenty around on Saturday, but I was only able to get decent photos of a few.

My iNat total for the day was 51 observations from 25 species, including my first lichen ID (wolf lichen). There are still a bunch that I haven't identified yet, including a mystery dragonfly, hover fly, a grass skipper, and a possible Sylvan Hairstreak.

The iNat community was of great help in sorting out plants and flycatchers. Now I just need help with the insects!

Phillip's Farm is a great place to go iNatting, though the pond is pretty much choked out with duckweed.
