We held our July field trip at Jubilee State Park near Peoria, Illinois. We walked some trails starting at Red Fox Run picnic area. The forecast was for very hot weather and the water levels along the Illinois and Vermillion Rivers were much too high for hiking as originally planned. We had a great time with lots of wonderful conversations. We saw a number of insects (including some – such as a sawfly – that I had never seen before at the park). We were only there about 1.5 hours due to the rising temperatures. Photos of many of the insects encountered can be found on our Facebook page. Jose took a photo of our group before we began our hike. That is posted below. We had a total of 10 people participate. Hope to see everyone at our August field trip to Dirksen Park (near Pekin).
