The order of things in early June

What are these creatures called?

The Great Horned Owl returned to his perch in the middle of Farmer Bob's Hayfield tonight just as the big moon was rising up over the hill. Its been a long time since I've seen him (or her) sitting there.

I'm still waiting for the cotton wood trees to release a blizzard of fuzzies into my front yard. When it snows cottonwood, its a signal for the fire flies start to warming up their butts. Their flickers will appear within a week of the first fuzzy snow.
