• June is Perennial Garden Month & National Rivers Month • Young groundhogs and raccoons emerge and venture out with their mothers. • Crickets begin their nightly serenade. • Bird migration is finished. Birds that are here now are summer residents that nest. • As the month progresses, feeders can become busy with visiting parents and fledglings. • House Wrens are nesting. • Flycatchers are back. • Wood Duck and Mallard ducklings hatch and venture forth early in the month. • Canada Geese begin molting. • Coreopsis and Butterfly Weed start blooming; they're great butterfly attractors. • Trumpet Vine starts blooming; it's a great hummingbird attractor.
