Mosquitoes have been outnumbered by no-see-ums lately. The worse news is that emerald ash borers have arrived in Red Top.

Some beavers have been busy not far from downtown Red Top, roughly across the trail from where the railroad station used to be. They've cleared a pretty good channel through the swamp heading east. It seems that they are unconcerned with humans.

There is a missing cat south of Red Top, around County Road 60 and the county line. Seen today by Kris Eye Thompson at her house. She located the owner and now needs to relocate the cat. The cat is calico with a bobbed tail and is wearing a teal harness. She’s been lost since June. You can post here if you see or find the cat. Would be good to get her home before the weather gets colder. You can post reports in the comments.
