Well, I looked for deer, or turtles, or anything else commonly seen around here for this spot in the calendar but did not see anything.
I did see Canada Geese, and could have used them but I already have some of them in this month already.
So, it is a nest of tent caterpillars instead! That ugly, wiggly, hairy mass of creepy, crawly worm like creatures that devour leaves off of trees in a single day.
I tried to make it beautiful with bokeh in the background but I don't think I succeeded. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear no matter how hard you try!

What I always threaten to do but never get around to because it is the busiest time of the year is to take a propane torch to quickly burn them. It can be done without harming the tree at all.
They do not kill the tree but certainly does not allow it to prosper!
They are certainly ugly and show the diversity of our world. Got to show the ugliness as well as the beauty!

You can see a few of them crawling already.
