  • Refreshed Hummingbird feeders
  • Saw many more Hummingbirds after a rain.
  • Caretakers observed a large outbreak of Juniper Bud Worms on Ashe Juniper trees. Limbs of the Junipers are turning brown with dead Juniper needles and the ground beneath the affected trees is stained brownish orange.

The damage to the tree is a result of the worms using a web to tie the Juniper needles together for a cocoon.
