Relatively large thicket in sandy wet prairie on a beach ridge
The pubescent leaf undersides and the glandular petioles are unusual for this species, but everything else seems like a good match

Idk the difference between V. palmata and V. triloba or if V. triloba is now a syn for viola palmata.

Nighttime Drama Queen
Photo 1:
Playing Possum
While taking out recyclables at night, I heard something in my backyard. Got my camera, turned on the flash and discovered a small possum foraging in the leaves. I said hello as I took this shot & it promptly fell over and played dead. Complete with the mouth held open in a "death rictus"
Photo 2:
Is She Buying It?
I stayed still & quiet and soon the possum cut its eyes over at me like it was checking to see if I was buying its act.
Photo 3:
Cautiously Getting Up
Very slowly the possum started to get back on its feet.
Photo 4:
Still Showing My Teeth Just In Case
As it began to sit up, the possum kept the death grin going, just in case there was still a threat out there.
Photo 5:
And....I'm Dead Again!
I made the mistake of saying "it's ok baby, I'm not going to hurt you" & the possum promptly flopped over and froze. "Dead" once again. I was chuckling as I went back inside so the little drama queen could go about its business.

Robust vine. I think this is the native W. frutescens rather than W. sinensis or W. floribunda. I found a source suggesting that sinensis and floribunda have fuzzy/velvety seed pods while frutescens is smooth. Observations on iNat seem to bear out this distinction. Also, the seeds on this specimen look bean-like, while most of the photos I saw of seeds for the other two are flatter and rounder.

Poor fen on edge of floating mat, near minerotrophic moat
The galls on the leaves are distinct and common. I have seen what are likely the same galls on the same plant species in a sandy sedge meadows in Cook County, IL.

FINALLY! Been trying to see this Cook County mammal for 3 years now. Thanks to a little help from my birding friends in high places, I was able to visit the yard that hosts this community of these little gems almost nightly.

In a damp woodland edge near sand prairie and a marsh. Maybe something close to a male Spilopteron occiputale?

A large and robust tiger beetle in a small sand dune blowout. ID based primarily on the uninterrupted tawny marking, but also on the robust form.

This mink was in the tree the entire time I observed it, about 15 minutes. It came out only to pee down the side of the tree, then returned inside the hole. This is the only time I've seen a mink in a tree.
