Found along the Summit Road to Great Blue Hill. There was a lot of webbing on the guard rail. I don't know if it came from this spider or it happened to be there. Nearby there also appears to be egg masses.

Found along the Summit Road to Great Blue Hill. The photos aren't clear enough to see the details. I've made a choice based on what was shown as visually similar.

Not entirely sure that this is a black eyed susan, but that what it reminds me of. Found along the access road on the summit of Great Blue Hill.

Found on the main ski slope on Great Blue Hill.

The slope is now dominated by this grass, standing taller than I am. The field now has a crimson tinge to it because of this grass.

Found this caterpillar on the path within Ponkapoag Golf Course within Blue Hills Reservation. Probably fell from a nearby tree.

It was just at sunset when I came upon this plant and the bumble bee, motionless, on the flower. Seems awfully exposed.
