Beetles battle invasive plants
Showy purple loosestrife is bearing its color, which makes this the perfect time for the two largest lake associations in the county to attack the pest. The Lake Leelanau Lake Association is pinning part of its control approach to a beetle that’s a picky eater while the Glen Lake Association is resorting to hand-to-hand combat. 07/17/2024 05:06 PM

State divided: geographically, politically
Unless you moved to this state recently from another planet you are pretty much aware that Michigan is a divided state not only geographically but politically as well. It’s southeast Michigan vs. West Michigan. Lower Peninsula vs. Uppers. Uppers vs. the rest of the free world. Lower Michigan below Clare vs. everyone else up North and so it goes. 07/10/2024 03:48 PM

To the editor: I would like to add a hearty second to Alan Campbell’s suggestion in last week’s Enterprise to download the Merlin bird song identification app to your phone and rediscover the birdscape around us. As a lifelong bird watcher, I thought I pretty much knew the birds that visit our yard and feeders. 07/10/2024 03:48 PM
