In reference to the article Mistaken Identity – I had the same experience ! We were living in Sprucewoods , outside the Shilo Base , Manitoba – was in 1982 or so . Was in the evening and I spied what I thought was a hummingbird at the petunias – also noticed the long feeler uncoiling to sip or whatever – sent the Info to the Brandon Sun – the Editor enjoyed unusual tidbits – then in September a crocus ( Prairie that is ) under our picnic table , which I sent him – said he’d have to clean his glasses from then on so he wouldn’t miss all the unusual stuff !!
