An invasive insect called the Hemlock Wooly Adelgid is establishing a foothold within the Upper Valley. Hailing from East Asia, the species feeds by sucking sap from hemlock and spruce trees, which could spell bad news for the areaâs native tree population. The Path of Life Sculpture Gardenâs maze in Windsor, Vt., pictured, is made of roughly 1,000 hemlocks. The popular tourist destination has yet to detect the invasive species. Hemlock is the third most prevalent tree in Vermont and is an important part of New Englandâs forest ecosystem as it provides protection from erosion along stream banks, food for deer and other animals, and shelter for deer in the winter.

Joni Taylor, of Glen Mills, Penn., relocates a juvenile snapping turtle attempting to cross Waterman Hill Road in Quechee, Vt., on May 23, 2016. This is the time of year when female snapping turtles emerge from the water to lay eggs. Wildlife experts recommend that if you encounter a turtle in the road, the best way to move them is to gently coax them into a box with a shovel, and then carry it to the other side. Wear gloves, as well. (Valley News - Mac Snyder) Copyright Valley News. May not be reprinted or used online without permission. Send requests to permission@vnews.com.
